1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,400
When you learn to live in the 
present, you're accepting that 

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,920
the past can't be changed. 
You're accepting that the future

3
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:14,440
has yet to come. 
All you have is this moment, and

4
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:20,680
it's all you'll ever have today.
As you meditate, be mindful that

5
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,880
Jesus is with you and He's 
actively working in your life. 

6
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:35,760
OK, let's begin by getting 
comfortable and taking a few 

7
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:43,640
nice deep breaths. 
As you begin to feel your body 

8
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:49,680
releasing, allow your eyes to 
slowly close. 

9
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,160
Take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

10
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,640
I am the vine, and you are the 
branches. 

11
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:09,040
If you stay joined to me and I 
to you, you will produce plenty 

12
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:23,000
of fruit. 
And again, I am the vine and you

13
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,960
are the branches. 
If you stay joined to me and I 

14
00:01:27,960 --> 00:01:31,440
to you, you will produce plenty 
of fruit. 

15
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:53,400
Keeping your eyes closed bring 
your awareness to the space 

16
00:01:53,400 --> 00:02:06,850
around the room. 
Just noticing the sounds in the 

17
00:02:06,850 --> 00:02:11,009
room and the sensations on the 
body. 

18
00:02:15,930 --> 00:02:20,210
Welcome these sensations as part
of the practice. 

19
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:38,160
When it feels comfortable, take 
some nice deep breaths. 

20
00:02:48,320 --> 00:03:06,490
Real easy deep breaths. 
Now begin to slow down the 

21
00:03:06,490 --> 00:03:17,360
inhale. 
Long, slow, deep inhalation, and

22
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:24,880
then let the breath out and 
relax again. 

23
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:33,720
Take another long, slow, deep 
breath in, filling up the body, 

24
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,120
and then let the exhale come 
naturally. 

25
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,920
With each breath, let your mind 
relax. 

26
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:04,200
Allow your feelings to release 
and become a prayer to God 

27
00:04:17,550 --> 00:04:24,510
now for a few moments. 
Let go of the focused attention 

28
00:04:25,950 --> 00:04:32,310
and let your awareness rest. 
You are loved. 

29
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:55,400
And now bring your attention to 
the heartbeat. 

30
00:05:03,310 --> 00:05:06,990
Allow its rhythm to relax the 
body. 

31
00:05:15,860 --> 00:05:22,300
As you begin to relax, bring 
your attention to the weight of 

32
00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:43,320
the body. 
Allow the arms and the legs to 

33
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:56,280
become heavy. 
Allow the face to soften all the

34
00:05:56,280 --> 00:06:06,050
way down through the neck. 
Soften the skin. 

35
00:06:12,210 --> 00:06:16,530
Allow the corners of the eyes to
relax. 

36
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,440
Let the shoulders fall away from
the ears. 

37
00:06:31,710 --> 00:06:44,100
Release the elbows. 
Let the wrists and the hands 

38
00:06:44,340 --> 00:06:55,020
relax. 
Soften the chest and the 

39
00:06:55,020 --> 00:07:06,420
stomach. 
Release the hips and the thighs.

40
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:20,120
Relax the calves all the way 
down to the ankles. 

41
00:07:31,300 --> 00:07:37,380
Allow the entire body to let go 
and totally relax. 

42
00:07:54,640 --> 00:08:00,560
There is nowhere to go. 
You are exactly where you're 

43
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:18,060
supposed to be. 
Take this verse with you. 

44
00:08:20,380 --> 00:08:24,060
I am the vine and you are the 
branches. 

45
00:08:25,220 --> 00:08:30,820
If you stay joined to me and I 
to you, you will produce plenty 

46
00:08:30,820 --> 00:08:47,360
of fruit. 
Gently bring your awareness back

47
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:52,800
to the feeling of your breath. 
Listen to the sound of your 

48
00:08:52,800 --> 00:09:02,280
breathing and when you're ready,
slowly open your eyes and take 

49
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:07,720
another deep breath in. 
Give yourself a stretch and sit 

50
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:12,480
back and relax. 
Remember to take a moment to 

51
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:16,400
check in and notice how you 
feel. 

52
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,880
I hope you feel better. 
Take care and we'll see you 

53
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:27,600
again to Morrow with hope, 
mindfulness, and prayer.
