1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,800
By keeping your focus on God's 
love for you, you're reminded 

2
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:10,480
that your life matters. 
Whether you're washing dishes, 

3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:15,280
running a company, or just 
packing lunch for your kids, you

4
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:20,080
matter to God. 
By keeping God close, your 

5
00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:23,480
actions become aligned with 
purpose and love. 

6
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:33,040
Go ahead and get comfortable in 
your position, really allowing 

7
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:43,680
the body to relax, and when you 
feel ready, let your eyes slowly

8
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:52,400
close. 
Now take a moment to consider 

9
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:59,560
this verse. 
If you look to Him for help, he 

10
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:13,320
will put a smile on your face. 
Again, if you look to Him for 

11
00:01:13,320 --> 00:01:18,320
help, he will put a smile on 
your face 

12
00:01:33,750 --> 00:01:38,510
with a gradual ease. 
Take a nice big breath. 

13
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:55,400
Be intentional with the breath. 
Big deep inhales and nice long 

14
00:01:55,560 --> 00:02:11,160
exhales relax and settle into 
your body with each breath. 

15
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,760
Allow the muscles to soften and 
let go. 

16
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:29,960
Feel that sense of gravity and 
weight in the body. 

17
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,720
You're just uncovering the 
natural calm that's always 

18
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:55,900
accessible through God. 
Now with ease, bring your 

19
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:59,100
awareness to the sounds in the 
room. 

20
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:15,400
Just listening to the sounds 
with an easy curiosity, not 

21
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:22,960
placing judgment on the sounds. 
Just noticing the sounds and 

22
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,200
accepting them as part of this 
practice. 

23
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:42,080
If the thoughts take you away, 
it's OK. 

24
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:49,280
When you notice the thoughts, 
gently bring your awareness back

25
00:03:49,280 --> 00:04:04,680
to the sounds. 
Just noticing and listening. 

26
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:25,560
Now for a moment or two, let 
your awareness go where it wants

27
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:41,250
to go. 
When you feel comfortable, bring

28
00:04:41,250 --> 00:04:44,650
your attention to the feeling of
the body. 

29
00:04:50,730 --> 00:04:55,930
Make sure you aren't holding any
stress or anxiety in the body. 

30
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:15,040
Consciously begin to scan the 
body and make sure everything is

31
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:41,240
comfortable and relaxed. 
Take a few natural deep breaths.

32
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:49,400
Release any emotions or feelings
you brought with you to this 

33
00:05:49,400 --> 00:06:04,850
practice. 
Let God handle what you cannot. 

34
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:21,040
Relax the body a little more 
with each out breath. 

35
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:32,400
Simply let go and rest in the 
presence of God. 

36
00:06:43,570 --> 00:06:58,770
Feel the space around the body. 
Appreciate the sounds in the 

37
00:06:58,770 --> 00:07:12,920
room. 
Just listening and experiencing 

38
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:28,630
the feeling of breathing. 
If you notice any resistance in 

39
00:07:28,630 --> 00:07:35,670
the body, come back to the 
breath and allow that tension to

40
00:07:35,670 --> 00:07:49,520
release. 
You are safe, 

41
00:08:03,790 --> 00:08:12,390
take this verse with you. 
If you look to Him for help, he 

42
00:08:12,390 --> 00:08:30,410
will put a smile on your face. 
Gently bring your awareness back

43
00:08:30,410 --> 00:08:35,409
to the feeling of the body. 
Notice the weight of the body on

44
00:08:35,409 --> 00:08:42,280
the chair and when you feel 
ready, allow your eyes to open 

45
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:49,520
and take a nice deep breath. 
Notice how your breath changes 

46
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:55,360
the way you feel. 
I hope you feel a little more in

47
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,960
touch with God. 
We'll see you again next time 

48
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,040
with hope, mindfulness, and 
prayer.
