1
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:15,900
Begin by taking a few nice deep 
breaths and as your body begins 

2
00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:21,900
to relax, allow your eyes to 
slowly close. 

3
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:34,520
Bring your awareness to rest 
with this verse and prayer. 

4
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:42,640
This is the very day of the Lord
that brings gladness and joy. 

5
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:58,400
And again, this is the very day 
of the Lord that brings gladness

6
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:13,880
and joy. 
Bring your attention to any 

7
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,080
emotions you're carrying with 
you in the body. 

8
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,080
Not placing judgement on the 
feelings or engaging with them, 

9
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:39,800
just noticing them, taking note 
of the emotions and then letting

10
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:54,330
them go. 
Begin to notice that deeper 

11
00:01:54,330 --> 00:01:59,490
sense of calm beneath those 
emotions. 

12
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:21,040
Maybe even begin to visualize a 
place that feels safe, a place 

13
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,600
where you feel loved and taken 
care of. 

14
00:02:32,950 --> 00:02:38,590
This is a place of safety and 
acceptance. 

15
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,800
God loves you and wants you to 
feel loved. 

16
00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:58,200
He wants you to feel a sense of 
security in Him. 

17
00:03:11,690 --> 00:03:20,090
In this place of safety, begin 
to notice how your body feels, 

18
00:03:26,410 --> 00:03:33,330
consciously relaxing the body 
and allowing God's presence to 

19
00:03:33,330 --> 00:03:54,280
calm your mind. 
For a moment or two, relax and 

20
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,160
notice how you feel in this 
place. 

21
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,120
If the mind wanders off, that's 
OK. 

22
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:21,040
When it feels natural, bring 
your awareness back to this 

23
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:38,360
place of love and safety. 
Surrendering all of your worried

24
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:44,280
thoughts, your stresses, and 
maybe even your 

25
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:52,400
responsibilities. 
Just relaxing and releasing. 

26
00:04:55,120 --> 00:05:18,440
Letting go. 
Now bring your attention to the 

27
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:33,440
breath. 
Let's take some nice deep 

28
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:50,820
breaths. 
Make them feel easy and 

29
00:05:50,820 --> 00:06:00,900
effortless in through the nose 
and out through the mouth. 

30
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:25,820
Feeling life enter your body as 
you breathe in, inhale, feel how

31
00:06:25,820 --> 00:06:36,980
the body expands, then slowly 
exhale, releasing tension as you

32
00:06:36,980 --> 00:06:55,760
go. 
Feel the air as it travels in 

33
00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:05,280
through the nose and feel the 
body fall with each exhale. 

34
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:41,080
With each breath, allow the 
chest and shoulders to soften 

35
00:07:42,280 --> 00:08:09,880
and relax. 
Notice how the body feels. 

36
00:08:18,930 --> 00:08:26,010
Allow your breath to soften and 
release the tension in your 

37
00:08:26,010 --> 00:08:50,610
body. 
Just relaxing and releasing. 

38
00:09:09,870 --> 00:09:17,270
There's no way to do this wrong.
The breath breathes itself. 

39
00:09:33,330 --> 00:09:38,690
And now let your mind go where 
it wants to go. 

40
00:09:53,760 --> 00:10:00,120
Take this verse with you. 
This is the very day of the Lord

41
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:18,970
that brings gladness and joy. 
God, I know you're always with 

42
00:10:18,970 --> 00:10:23,410
me. 
Thank you for all of your 

43
00:10:23,410 --> 00:10:30,090
blessings. 
Help me to relax and let go in 

44
00:10:30,090 --> 00:10:35,650
your presence. 
I trust your plan for my life.
