1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:05,200
When you live in the present, 
you're recognizing that 

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,680
ultimately, God is the one in 
control. 

3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:16,079
Letting go isn't giving up your 
wants, it's trusting that you 

4
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:21,880
are in good hands. 
When you let go, you'll find 

5
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,640
peace even in the midst of a 
storm. 

6
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:34,680
OK, let's go ahead and get 
started by taking a moment to 

7
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:43,720
notice your breath. 
Just the rise and the fall of 

8
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:51,560
the chest. 
And when you're ready, let your 

9
00:00:51,560 --> 00:01:02,880
eyes close like the sun sets. 
Now take a moment to consider 

10
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:09,200
this verse. 
Because he loves me, says the 

11
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,280
Lord. 
I will rescue him. 

12
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,720
I will be with him in trouble 
and I will deliver him. 

13
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:34,760
And again, because he loves me, 
says the Lord, I will rescue 

14
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:41,480
him, I will be with him in 
trouble, and I will deliver him.

15
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:01,840
And now bring your attention to 
the heartbeat. 

16
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,440
Allow its rhythm to relax the 
body. 

17
00:02:17,330 --> 00:02:23,770
As you begin to relax, bring 
your attention to the weight of 

18
00:02:23,770 --> 00:02:38,800
the body. 
Allow the arms and the legs to 

19
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:47,760
become heavy. 
Allow the face to soften all the

20
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:55,520
way down through the neck. 
Soften the skin. 

21
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,000
Allow the corners of the eyes to
relax. 

22
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:14,920
Let the shoulders fall away from
the ears. 

23
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:33,570
Release the elbows. 
Let the wrists and the hands 

24
00:03:33,850 --> 00:03:44,520
relax. 
Soften the chest and the 

25
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:55,880
stomach. 
Release the hips and the thighs.

26
00:04:05,060 --> 00:04:09,620
Relax the calves all the way 
down to the ankles. 

27
00:04:18,829 --> 00:04:24,870
Allow the entire body to let go 
and totally relax. 

28
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:43,040
There is nowhere to go. 
You are exactly where you're 

29
00:04:43,040 --> 00:05:03,110
supposed to be. 
Bring your attention to the 

30
00:05:03,110 --> 00:05:15,230
feeling of the breath. 
Let it settle into a natural 

31
00:05:15,230 --> 00:05:36,440
rhythm, effortless and easy. 
Notice how good it feels just to

32
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:53,510
breathe 
with each inhale, Let your body 

33
00:05:53,510 --> 00:06:04,430
fill up with new life. 
With each exhale, release and 

34
00:06:04,430 --> 00:06:20,840
let your body relax. 
Feel your feet on the floor and 

35
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:23,880
the weight of your body in the 
chair. 

36
00:06:34,830 --> 00:06:46,550
Now gently bring your attention 
to your emotions, just noticing 

37
00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:49,870
the feelings that you brought 
with you today. 

38
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:09,560
Not engaging with the emotions, 
just noticing them. 

39
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:29,090
As an observer, 
remember that you can leave 

40
00:07:29,090 --> 00:07:32,210
those feelings right where they 
are. 

41
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:48,440
Just allow those thoughts to 
bubble up and out. 

42
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:06,960
Remember, today is a new day 
with new opportunities. 

43
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:28,580
God is working in your life. 
Take this verse with you. 

44
00:08:30,820 --> 00:08:36,299
Your promise revives me. 
It comforts me in all my 

45
00:08:36,299 --> 00:08:55,920
troubles. 
Gently bring your awareness back

46
00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:00,880
to the feeling of the body. 
Notice the weight of the body on

47
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:07,760
the chair and when you feel 
ready, allow your eyes to open 

48
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:15,000
and take a nice deep breath. 
Notice how your breath changes 

49
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,840
the way you feel. 
I hope you feel a little more in

50
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:25,440
touch with God. 
We'll see you again next time 

51
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,520
with hope, mindfulness, and 
prayer.
