Also read our 8 Mindfulness Exercises for Love and Compassion. A variety of human experiences, from trauma and depression to anger and contempt, can act as invitations to deepen our sense of love. As we open our hearts to a broader view of ourselves, our pasts, and those around us, our experience of compassion may grow. These 8 mindfulness exercises are examples of practices and teachings we can explore in relation to our search for greater peace, happiness, and unconditional acceptance.
