About this event
Returning Teacher: Vance Pryor - Practicing with Kindness: Metta at the Heart of Mindfulness Practice
In this talk, we’ll explore how bringing an attitude of metta—loving-kindness—can gently reshape your mindfulness practice. Rather than using awareness to judge or fix experience, we’ll look at how kindness allows the mind to settle and open naturally. Metta helps us meet distraction, difficulty, and even ease with warmth instead of struggle. Together, we’ll reflect on how mindfulness deepens when care and friendliness are present from the start.
Vance Pryor, PsyD, began practicing insight meditation in 1998. He has been deeply influenced by the teachings of Sayadaw U Pandita and Sayadaw U Tejaniya. His training to become a teacher has been supported by the mentorship of Steve Armstrong and Kamala Masters. He is a graduate of IMS’s 2017-2021 Teacher Training Program.
Vance Pryor will be teaching the Sunday program at the White Heron Sangha once per quarter for the next few quarters.
