10 Ways to Live Your Beloved All Year Long

()

1. Morning ritual

Before you get out of bed, put your hand on your heart and say metta or a prayer for all Beloveds everywhere to be safe, healthy, easeful, and free.

Before checking emails and social, be in your body in any way that feels good for five minutes.
