I have a question about the episode Susan Cain — How to Overcome Fear and Embrace Creativity | The Tim Ferriss Show (Podcast) and the clip Lovingkindness Meditation. I've heard about the practice of metta or loving-kindness, but usually I feel like this practice isn't directed at the future self specifically. Can you clarify how loving-kindness meditation can be directed at the future self?
Can you share a personal experience with loving-kindness meditation?
