We use guided meditation to teach lovingkindness (metta) practice, traditional Burmese body scanning as taught by Saya Gyi U Ba Khin and Sunlun meditation. Once students can practice independently, we stop guiding their practice. This fosters skill development and independence. Relying on external resources such as a recording or teacher leading a guided meditation may be a pleasant experience, but it is not the pathway to training the mind and the development of happiness independent of external conditions.
