Julie Potiker leads you through this healing compassion meditation. She completes the meditation with the poem, 'Unconditional', by Jennifer Welwood.

Unconditional, by Jennifer WelwoodWilling to experience aloneness,I discover connection everywhere;Turning to face my fear,I meet the warrior who lives within;Opening to my loss,I gain the embrace of the universe;Surrendering into emptiness,I find fullness without end. Each condition I flee from pursues me,Each condition I welcome transforms meAnd becomes itself transformedInto its radiant jewel-like essence.I bow to the one who has made it so,Who has crafted this Master Game;To play it is purest delight;To honor its form – true devotion.  © Jennifer Welwood
