1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:05,760
As you begin to practice being 
mindful in your daily life, one 

2
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:09,880
of the things you'll notice is 
that you'll begin to see beauty 

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:16,720
in areas you never did before. 
Finding joy isn't about changing

4
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:21,000
your circumstances. 
It's about changing your outlook

5
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,520
and finding God in your life as 
it is right now. 

6
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,960
Remind yourself of that today 
and see how it changes the way 

7
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:38,200
you feel. 
OK, let's begin by getting 

8
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,080
comfortable and taking a few 
deep breaths. 

9
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:53,320
As you begin to feel your body 
releasing, allow your eyes to 

10
00:00:53,320 --> 00:01:01,920
slowly close. 
Now take a moment to consider 

11
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:07,600
this verse. 
My prayer is that light will 

12
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:12,520
flood your hearts and that you 
will understand the hope that 

13
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,240
was given to you when God chose 
you. 

14
00:01:22,970 --> 00:01:30,770
And again, my prayer is that 
light will flood your hearts and

15
00:01:30,770 --> 00:01:35,240
that you will understand the 
hope that was given to you when 

16
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:54,920
God chose you. 
With ease, bring your attention 

17
00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:06,770
to the breath. 
Take a few nice deep breaths. 

18
00:02:11,170 --> 00:02:15,050
Make them feel easy and 
effortless. 

19
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:38,320
Feel life enter your body as you
breathe in and then release your

20
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:58,800
tension as you breathe out. 
Inhale, feel how the body 

21
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:08,840
expands, then slowly exhale, 
feeling the body fall. 

22
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:28,360
Feel the air as it travels in 
through the nose and follow the 

23
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:41,520
air back out through the mouth. 
Allow each breath to soften the 

24
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:51,080
chest and relax the shoulders. 
Begin to scan the body from the 

25
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:59,000
head to the toe, relaxing the 
body piece by piece. 

26
00:04:05,190 --> 00:04:19,690
There's no way to do this wrong.
And now, for a few moments, 

27
00:04:21,050 --> 00:04:24,930
allow your mind to do what it 
wants to do. 

28
00:04:28,290 --> 00:04:36,320
If it wants to think then let it
think, and if it wants to rest 

29
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:55,860
then let it rest. 
Bring your attention to any 

30
00:04:55,860 --> 00:05:07,290
tightness in the body, just 
noticing how the body feels. 

31
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:31,760
Start by relaxing the hands, 
letting go of any tension in the

32
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:49,070
hands. 
Allow the arms to totally relax,

33
00:05:51,310 --> 00:05:54,990
letting go at the elbows and the
wrists. 

34
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,840
Let the shoulders fall away from
the ears. 

35
00:06:24,670 --> 00:06:39,650
Let the legs become heavy. 
Allow the muscles to completely 

36
00:06:39,650 --> 00:07:00,360
let go. 
Let your body totally relax and 

37
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:18,600
release. 
And now if it feels comfortable,

38
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:25,960
take a big deep breath, letting 
the air fill up the body. 

39
00:07:35,050 --> 00:07:40,130
Notice how the breath changes 
the way the body feels. 

40
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:06,000
And now for a moment or two, let
go of any focus and just allow 

41
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:23,030
yourself to be. 
Take this verse with you. 

42
00:08:25,790 --> 00:08:31,230
My prayer is that light will 
flood your hearts and that you 

43
00:08:31,230 --> 00:08:35,990
will understand the hope that 
was given to you when God chose 

44
00:08:35,990 --> 00:08:52,640
you. 
Gently bring your awareness back

45
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:58,080
to the feeling of your breath. 
Listen to the sound of your 

46
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:07,520
breathing and when you're ready,
slowly open your eyes and take 

47
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,960
another deep breath in. 
Give yourself a stretch and sit 

48
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,720
back and relax. 
Remember to take a moment to 

49
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,640
check in and notice how you 
feel. 

50
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:28,120
I hope you feel better. 
Take care and we'll see you 

51
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,840
again to Morrow with hope, 
mindfulness, and prayer.
