Week 3: Loving-Kindness Meditation for a Neutral Person
A short guided loving-kindness meditation focused on extending care toward someone you encounter in your work but do not know well. A patient. A colleague in passing. A face that is familiar without yet being close. This practice widens the circle of compassion beyond the people we already love.

Week 4: Loving-Kindness Meditation for Someone Difficult
A short guided loving-kindness meditation focused on extending goodwill toward someone who challenges you. This is the final and most demanding practice in the four-week sequence. You are not asked to approve of anyone's behavior or to lower your boundaries. You are only invited to release the weight of holding them in resentment. That weight belongs to you, not to them.
