Listen "“Ever Expanding Lovingkindness. A Dharma Talk.”"
Episode Synopsis
When we begin to extend Metta (Lovingkindness) to people we don’t know and perhaps even to people we don’t like very much, we begin to get a glimpse of a new world. An opening into a new and more loving worldview.
Join meditation teacher Chris Luard for “Ever Expanding Lovingkindness. A Dharma Talk.”
Lovingkindness has a medicinal quality. It carries with it an energy and a power which can mend the age-old wounds between self and other.

Chris has received formal training in Zen, Mahamudra and Dzogchen, from the Mahayana (Japanese, Korean, and Tibetan) traditions, Vipassana and early buddhist studies from the Theravada traditions, and Vedanta from the Hindu traditions. Chris has also received formal instruction from the more modern traditions and modalities such as Secular Buddhism, MBSR, Insight, Shambhala, Buddhist Psychology, Trauma-Sensitive Mindfulness, Neuroplasticity, and trauma healing.
A few of the topics Chris specializes in are Mindfulness, Insight Meditation, Lovingkindness, Compassion, Boundless Joy, Equanimity, Embracing Change, Deep Rest Meditation, and practices designed to free us from emotional reactivity. All of the teachings are offered within a secular voice and a trauma informed framework.
