1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:05,160
Becoming comfortable with 
solitude is a life changing 

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:09,160
experience. 
Not only does it allow God's 

3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:13,840
voice to be heard more clearly, 
it gives you the space to learn 

4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:18,520
about yourself. 
It gives you time to digest your

5
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,240
emotions and realize what you 
really want out of life. 

6
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,600
The more you let go and rest, 
the deeper you will be able to 

7
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,360
experience God's love in your 
life. 

8
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:40,480
OK, let's begin by getting 
comfortable and taking a few 

9
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:48,360
nice deep breaths. 
As you begin to feel your body 

10
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:54,400
releasing, allow your eyes to 
slowly close. 

11
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,920
Take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

12
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:08,320
Be silent and stop your 
striving, and you will see that 

13
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:21,910
I am God. 
And again, be silent and stop 

14
00:01:21,910 --> 00:01:26,990
your striving, and you will see 
that I am God. 

15
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:48,880
Now bring your attention to any 
emotions you're carrying with 

16
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:56,720
you. 
Not engaging with the emotions, 

17
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,480
just noticing them with an easy 
curiosity. 

18
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:26,520
Now take a few deep breaths and 
allow the body to relax a little

19
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,400
more. 
With each exhale, 

20
00:02:39,650 --> 00:02:46,490
with each passing thought, allow
your awareness to rest deeper 

21
00:02:46,890 --> 00:03:02,960
into God's love. 
Now begin to deepen the breath. 

22
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:20,920
Inhale slowly and lengthen the 
breath and then exhale, letting 

23
00:03:20,920 --> 00:03:31,990
go of the breath and then right 
back into the next inhale. 

24
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:48,070
Slow it down and make it deep, 
and then exhale. 

25
00:03:48,870 --> 00:04:10,040
Let the body relax. 
Now allow your breath to settle 

26
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,120
and let your mind settle with 
it. 

27
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:32,120
Give yourself space just to be 
who you are, a child of God. 

28
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:56,120
Now take a moment to be grateful
for this opportunity to relax. 

29
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:10,760
Notice how good it feels just to
be here in this moment. 

30
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:26,440
Let go of your worries and focus
your attention on the breath. 

31
00:05:43,550 --> 00:05:50,990
Nothing else matters right now. 
You are here. 

32
00:05:52,390 --> 00:05:55,990
There is nothing to do but 
relax. 

33
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:18,280
Allow your body to honor the 
natural calm given by God's 

34
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:34,000
presence, just listening to the 
breath, noticing the rise and 

35
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:48,230
the fall of the chest. 
Deep breath in, expanding the 

36
00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:55,440
body and then exhale, letting 
your awareness rest. 

37
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:17,620
Take another deep breath as you 
feel your lungs expand and 

38
00:07:17,620 --> 00:07:23,180
exhale, following the air back 
out through the mouth. 

39
00:07:30,470 --> 00:07:35,750
The thoughts may take you away, 
and that's OK. 

40
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:57,640
With each breath, effortlessly 
rest into the arms of God. 

41
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:19,170
Take this verse with you, be 
silent and stop your striving, 

42
00:08:20,130 --> 00:08:39,600
and you will see that I am God. 
Gently bring your awareness back

43
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:45,040
to the feeling of your breath. 
Listen to the sound of your 

44
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:54,480
breathing and when you're ready,
slowly open your eyes and take 

45
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:59,960
another deep breath in. 
Give yourself a stretch and sit 

46
00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:04,720
back and relax. 
Remember to take a moment to 

47
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,640
check in and notice how you 
feel. 

48
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:15,120
I hope you feel better. 
Take care and we'll see you 

49
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,800
again to Morrow with hope, 
mindfulness, and prayer.
