1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:06,080
Your breath is a place that you 
can go to at any point to ground

2
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:12,640
yourself. 
Maybe you're having a rough day 

3
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:16,320
at work or struggling with 
social anxiety. 

4
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,720
No matter the situation, you can
always gently bring your 

5
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:33,840
awareness back to the breath. 
Simply notice the breath and let

6
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:45,650
go. 
Let's start by taking a few nice

7
00:00:46,090 --> 00:00:53,530
deep breaths. 
As your breath begins to relax 

8
00:00:53,530 --> 00:01:00,570
your body, allow your eyes to 
close like the sun sets. 

9
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,120
Take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

10
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:16,480
My soul is quiet and waits for 
God alone. 

11
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:32,880
He is the one who saves me. 
And again, my soul is quiet and 

12
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:38,960
waits for God alone. 
He is the one who saves me. 

13
00:01:50,300 --> 00:01:56,620
With an easy awareness, bring 
your attention to the space in 

14
00:01:56,620 --> 00:02:06,690
the room. 
Just noticing the space. 

15
00:02:07,650 --> 00:02:18,730
With an easy curiosity, notice 
your place in the room. 

16
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,000
Feel the weight of your body in 
the chair. 

17
00:02:36,110 --> 00:02:46,700
Feel the air on your skin. 
Listen to the sounds in the 

18
00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:52,940
room. 
Maybe it's quiet in the room, 

19
00:02:53,980 --> 00:02:57,620
maybe it's not. 
Both are OK. 

20
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:14,160
You're just listening and 
welcoming the sounds as part of 

21
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:26,620
the exercise, not wishing to 
change the sounds, just 

22
00:03:26,620 --> 00:03:42,380
accepting the sounds as they are
when it feels natural. 

23
00:03:44,060 --> 00:03:47,740
Slowly bring your awareness to 
the breath. 

24
00:03:55,640 --> 00:04:01,000
Allow your breath to be a 
reminder to stay in this present

25
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:12,810
moment. 
If your mind begins to wander, 

26
00:04:14,210 --> 00:04:17,850
you can always come back to the 
feeling of the breath. 

27
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:38,680
Relax and let your body honor 
the natural calm that only comes

28
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,480
from the presence of a loving 
God. 

29
00:04:54,270 --> 00:04:59,310
Now gently bring your awareness 
to the breath. 

30
00:05:02,910 --> 00:05:07,750
Allow your breath to deepen and 
fill the lungs. 

31
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:26,840
Big deep breath in and then 
taking twice as long on the 

32
00:05:26,840 --> 00:05:39,090
exhale. 
Let the inhale come easily and 

33
00:05:39,090 --> 00:05:47,570
effortlessly and then exhale, 
controlling the breath. 

34
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:01,240
Allow yourself to be here in 
this moment. 

35
00:06:06,280 --> 00:06:09,520
This is all that matters right 
now. 

36
00:06:16,330 --> 00:06:21,050
Whenever you need to let go of, 
let it go. 

37
00:06:23,530 --> 00:06:40,290
Release it to God. 
Today is a new day with new 

38
00:06:40,290 --> 00:06:55,330
opportunities. 
Allow your breath to renew your 

39
00:06:55,330 --> 00:07:01,450
spirit and connect you to your 
Creator who loves you. 

40
00:07:12,670 --> 00:07:20,030
Deep breath in through the nose 
and out through the mouth. 

41
00:07:30,930 --> 00:07:35,490
Remember, this is a place of 
love. 

42
00:07:37,050 --> 00:07:41,050
Let this practice be whatever 
you need it to be. 

43
00:07:42,890 --> 00:07:48,970
God's calming presence is always
accessible to you. 

44
00:08:00,290 --> 00:08:06,010
Let your awareness rest in the 
loving presence of God. 

45
00:08:19,970 --> 00:08:27,370
Take this verse with you. 
My soul is quiet and waits for 

46
00:08:27,370 --> 00:08:32,650
God alone. 
He is the one who saves me. 

47
00:08:44,930 --> 00:08:52,210
Allow your awareness to slowly 
come back to your body and when 

48
00:08:52,210 --> 00:08:56,930
it feels natural, begin to open 
your eyes. 

49
00:08:59,250 --> 00:09:03,250
Sit back in your chair. 
Maybe you want to stretch a 

50
00:09:03,250 --> 00:09:06,930
little bit. 
Do whatever feels good. 

51
00:09:08,530 --> 00:09:12,010
Take a moment to notice how you 
feel. 

52
00:09:13,610 --> 00:09:16,090
I hope you feel a little more 
relaxed. 

53
00:09:17,250 --> 00:09:21,210
We'll see you again tomorrow for
another day of hope.
