1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:06,080
It's really common for us to 
spend a lot of our time focusing

2
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:11,840
on the past or the future. 
Our present seems to be mostly 

3
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:16,920
occupied with getting somewhere 
or getting back to where we 

4
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:23,480
were, but we forget that the 
present is the only time that is

5
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:28,120
real. 
Our life can only happen in the 

6
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:33,320
here and now. 
Peace of Mind can only be found 

7
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,040
in the present. 
God's love can only be 

8
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:47,080
experienced in this moment. 
OK, let's get started by 

9
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:55,400
allowing the body to relax, and 
when you're ready, let your eyes

10
00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:05,800
close like the sunsets. 
Take a moment to consider this 

11
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,800
verse. 
I sought the Lord, and He 

12
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,920
answered me. 
He delivered me from my fears. 

13
00:01:23,620 --> 00:01:29,180
And again I sought the Lord, and
He answered me. 

14
00:01:30,300 --> 00:01:52,920
He delivered me from my fears. 
Now bring your attention to the 

15
00:01:52,920 --> 00:02:03,080
way the body feels, just 
noticing any areas of tightness 

16
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:16,820
in the body. 
If it feels comfortable, take a 

17
00:02:16,820 --> 00:02:30,360
few nice deep breaths. 
Allow your breath to loosen any 

18
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:47,280
areas of tightness in the body. 
With each breath, allow a sense 

19
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:59,530
of calm to wash over your body. 
Allow your body to totally 

20
00:02:59,530 --> 00:03:16,960
release and let go. 
Now bring your attention to the 

21
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:25,080
top of the head. 
Begin to soften the forehead, 

22
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:37,130
down the front of the face. 
Relax the corners of the eyes. 

23
00:03:42,260 --> 00:03:48,080
Allow the neck to relax and the 
shoulders to fall away from the 

24
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:55,360
ears. 
Relax the temples. 

25
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:10,660
The legs are becoming heavy. 
Feel the weight of the body. 

26
00:04:16,940 --> 00:04:22,360
Let your whole body soften and 
release. 

27
00:04:32,830 --> 00:04:38,470
Allow your mind to rest with the
presence of God. 

28
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:56,840
Now bring your awareness to the 
feeling of the body. 

29
00:05:04,820 --> 00:05:09,780
Maybe there's some muscle 
tightness or stress lingering in

30
00:05:09,780 --> 00:05:19,320
the body. 
Slowly bring your attention to 

31
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:26,400
those areas of tightness and 
relax them piece by piece. 

32
00:05:39,860 --> 00:05:46,740
As your body begins to relax, 
allow your mind to let go. 

33
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,360
Give yourself permission to 
start fresh. 

34
00:06:20,660 --> 00:06:27,580
What is done is done. 
All you have is this moment. 

35
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:51,680
This is a safe place. 
Release your thoughts to God 

36
00:07:04,770 --> 00:07:12,330
when it feels comfortable. 
Take a few nice deep breaths, 

37
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:28,720
inhale, feel the chest rise, and
exhale, feel the chest fall. 

38
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:52,570
There's no way to do this wrong.
If the thoughts take you away, 

39
00:07:53,970 --> 00:07:59,890
that's OK. 
When it feels comfortable, bring

40
00:07:59,890 --> 00:08:04,250
your awareness back to the 
feeling of the breath. 

41
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:25,080
Take this verse with you. 
I sought the Lord and He 

42
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,400
answered me. 
He delivered me from my fears. 

43
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:48,880
When you feel ready, slowly 
bring your awareness back to the

44
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,120
breath and allow your eyes to 
open. 

45
00:08:54,040 --> 00:09:01,480
Take a few deep breaths in 
through the nose and out through

46
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:06,000
the mouth. 
Notice how you feel. 

47
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,720
I hope you feel a little more 
relaxed. 

48
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:18,400
We'll see you again tomorrow 
with hope, mindfulness, and 

49
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:18,880
prayer.
