1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:10,160
God's presence is like the wind.
You can't see it, but you can 

2
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:18,290
feel it. 
Today, as you enter into this 

3
00:00:18,290 --> 00:00:24,810
meditation, allow yourself to 
rest in the presence of God. 

4
00:00:31,290 --> 00:00:39,520
Let's begin by loosening the 
shoulders and the chest, and 

5
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:45,720
when you feel ready, just allow 
the eyes to slowly close. 

6
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,360
Take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

7
00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:02,440
Happy is the man you choose and 
bring near to you to live in 

8
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:16,960
your holy place. 
And again, happy is the man you 

9
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:21,520
choose and bring near to you to 
live in your holy place 

10
00:01:32,270 --> 00:01:36,630
with ease. 
Bring your attention to the 

11
00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:47,740
breath. 
Take a few nice deep breaths. 

12
00:01:52,140 --> 00:01:56,040
Make them feel easy and 
effortless. 

13
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:19,280
Feel life enter your body as you
breathe in and then release your

14
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:39,800
tension as you breathe out. 
Inhale, feel how the body 

15
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:49,800
expands, then slowly exhale, 
feeling the body fall. 

16
00:03:02,010 --> 00:03:09,370
Feel the air as it travels in 
through the nose and follow the 

17
00:03:09,370 --> 00:03:22,520
air back out through the mouth. 
Allow each breath to soften the 

18
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:32,040
chest and relax the shoulders. 
Begin to scan the body from the 

19
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:39,960
head to the toe, relaxing the 
body piece by piece. 

20
00:03:46,170 --> 00:04:02,600
There's no way to do this wrong.
And now for a few moments, allow

21
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,960
your mind to do what it wants to
do. 

22
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:17,320
If it wants to think then let it
think, and if it wants to rest 

23
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:38,880
then let it rest. 
Bring your attention to any 

24
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:50,310
tightness in the body, just 
noticing how the body feels. 

25
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:18,720
Start by relaxing the hands, 
letting go of any tension in the

26
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:38,020
hands. 
Allow the arms to totally relax,

27
00:05:40,300 --> 00:05:43,940
letting go at the elbows and the
wrists. 

28
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,800
Let the shoulders fall away from
the ears. 

29
00:06:13,660 --> 00:06:30,650
Let the legs become heavy. 
Allow the muscles to completely 

30
00:06:30,650 --> 00:06:47,310
let go. 
Let your body totally relax and 

31
00:06:47,310 --> 00:07:03,720
release. 
And now, if it feels 

32
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:11,240
comfortable, take a big deep 
breath, letting the air fill up 

33
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:22,880
the body. 
Notice how the breath changes 

34
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:41,040
the way the body feels. 
And now for a moment or two, let

35
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:47,920
go of any focus and just allow 
yourself to be. 

36
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:10,120
Take this verse with you. 
Happy is the man you choose and 

37
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:14,520
bring near to you to live in 
your holy place. 

38
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:33,960
Slowly bring your awareness back
to the body and when you feel 

39
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:43,320
ready, allow your eyes to open. 
Take a moment to notice how your

40
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:48,480
body feels. 
I hope you feel a little better.

41
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,560
We'll see you again tomorrow 
with Hope, Mindfulness and 

42
00:08:55,560 --> 00:09:01,160
prayer. 
Remember, be easy with yourself.
