So I’ve done this for three days so far, and the results have been here and there. I often forget to do it, unless I’m at the same place for a while (work, for example), then I’d remember to do it. Last night I had choir and completely forgot about sending love to the group, though I did ground the ground the room and send Reiki to support the rehearsal (it was the second to last one until our concert on May 30). I sent love afterwards when I remembered.

The most significant results I’ve had were with people who provoked some resistance or negative emotion in me. This morning there was a girl on the bus who had a voice that carried and really bugged me, because I don’t like not being able to ignore conversations I don’t want to hear. I sent love to her but was still mildly annoyed until the guy she was speaking to got off the bus. Then a new temp started in my department today (I’m also a temp there), and she was tall, blond, and beautiful (and was being seated next to me), so that totally set off my insecurities. When I realized I was feeling that way, I sent love to her, and that calmed me down. I also did this a couple of times yesterday with things I read on the Internet that triggered my insecurities and fears. I found that sending love to the things or people I fear/resist helps to dissipate my own fears.
