What is Living Metta?

Welcome to Living Metta, where loving-kindness is not just a philosophy but a way of life. Co-founded by Heath and Nicole Reed, Living Metta is dedicated to creating environments and communities that inspire love, connection, and growth—both inwardly and outwardly.

Metta, a term that means loving-kindness, is at the heart of everything Heath and Nicole do. Living Metta is a vibrant community dedicated to embodying love and kindness through live and online classes, retreats, and social media engagement. Heath and Nicole have observed that while many healing communities excel at giving to others, there is often a deficiency in loving-kindness toward oneself. That’s why their practices focus on balancing care for others with self-care.

At Living Metta, theory takes a backseat to practice—because real transformation happens in the doing. Whether you join a live class, attend a retreat, or connect online, you’ll engage in healing moves designed to strengthen your nervous system and sustain higher levels of loving-kindness over time. Together, you’ll cultivate the tools to thrive in both giving and receiving love.

Thank you for being here. Heath and Nicole look forward to connecting with you, co-creating a community rooted in kindness, and making a meaningful impact in the world. Let’s practice living metta, together.
