Sharon Salzberg is the co-founder of the Insight Meditation Society and the definitive English-language teacher of mettā (lovingkindness) practice. Her Lovingkindness: The Revolutionary Art of Happiness is the foundational Western text on brahmavihara meditation. She has taught mindfulness to a generation of clinicians, journalists, and political leaders, and has been a quiet bridge between contemplative practice and mainstream American culture.
