A "Just Like Me" Compassion Meditation with Steve Hickman

The invitation with this practice is to put aside ideas and concepts about differences, shame, fear, survival, and to simply see if you can begin to develop a felt sense of common humanity—that all of us wish for happiness and freedom from suffering.

He is executive director of the Center for Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) and the Founding Director of the UC San Diego Center for Mindfulness, a program of community building, clinical care, professional training, and research.
