1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,280
Sometimes we have to leave our 
home to find our place in the 

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,760
world. 
We set out on our own to find 

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,440
the answers to the questions in 
our heart. 

4
00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:16,200
But as time and distance bring 
us further from where we 

5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:21,640
started, we recognize that what 
we were really searching for was

6
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,480
acceptance. 
As you go about your day, 

7
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,680
remember that God loves you just
as you are. 

8
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:39,840
You are already home. 
OK, let's begin by consciously 

9
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:48,320
relaxing the body and when 
you're ready, allow your eyes to

10
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:55,920
slowly close. 
As your body begins to settle, 

11
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,640
take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

12
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:08,440
For the mountains may move and 
the hills disappear, but even 

13
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,000
then my faithful love for you 
will remain. 

14
00:01:20,230 --> 00:01:26,870
And again, for the mountains may
move and the hills disappear, 

15
00:01:28,190 --> 00:01:33,510
but even then, my faithful love 
for you will remain. 

16
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:55,120
With an easy awareness, bring 
your attention to the space in 

17
00:01:55,120 --> 00:02:05,220
the room. 
Just noticing the space. 

18
00:02:06,180 --> 00:02:17,280
With an easy curiosity, notice 
your place in the room. 

19
00:02:23,990 --> 00:02:27,510
Feel the weight of your body in 
the chair. 

20
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:45,190
Feel the air on your skin. 
Listen to the sounds in the 

21
00:02:45,190 --> 00:02:51,470
room. 
Maybe it's quiet in the room, 

22
00:02:52,470 --> 00:02:56,110
maybe it's not. 
Both are OK. 

23
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:12,720
You're just listening and 
welcoming the sounds as part of 

24
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:25,160
the exercise, not wishing to 
change the sounds, just 

25
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:40,930
accepting the sounds as they are
when it feels natural. 

26
00:03:42,610 --> 00:03:46,290
Slowly bring your awareness to 
the breath. 

27
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:59,520
Allow your breath to be a 
reminder to stay in this present

28
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:11,320
moment. 
If your mind begins to wander, 

29
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,320
you can always come back to the 
feeling of the breath. 

30
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:37,240
Relax and let your body honor 
the natural calm that only comes

31
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,000
from the presence of a loving 
God. 

32
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,640
With ease, bring your attention 
to the breath. 

33
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:22,710
Take a few nice deep breaths, 
make them feel easy and 

34
00:05:22,710 --> 00:05:43,420
effortless. 
Feel life enter your body as you

35
00:05:43,420 --> 00:05:51,420
breathe in and then release your
tension as you breathe out. 

36
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:21,560
Inhale, feel how the body 
expands, then slowly exhale, 

37
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:40,980
feeling the body fall. 
Feel the air as it travels in 

38
00:06:40,980 --> 00:06:47,580
through the nose and follow the 
air back out through the mouth. 

39
00:06:54,800 --> 00:07:01,120
Allow each breath to soften the 
chest and relax the shoulders. 

40
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:14,680
Begin to scan the body from the 
head to the toe, relaxing the 

41
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:30,760
body piece by piece. 
There's no way to do this wrong.

42
00:07:42,950 --> 00:07:50,470
And now, for a few moments, 
allow your mind to do what it 

43
00:07:50,470 --> 00:07:58,230
wants to do. 
If it wants to think then let it

44
00:07:58,230 --> 00:08:05,590
think, and if it wants to rest 
then let it rest. 

45
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:25,560
Take this verse with you, for 
the mountains may move and the 

46
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:32,799
hills disappear, but even then, 
my faithful love for you will 

47
00:08:32,799 --> 00:08:48,790
remain. 
Allow your awareness to slowly 

48
00:08:48,790 --> 00:08:56,510
come back to your body and when 
it feels natural, begin to open 

49
00:08:56,510 --> 00:09:01,000
your eyes. 
Sit back in your chair. 

50
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,240
Maybe you want to stretch a 
little bit. 

51
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:11,760
Do whatever feels good. 
Take a moment to notice how you 

52
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,600
feel. 
I hope you feel a little more 

53
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,280
relaxed. 
We'll see you again tomorrow for

54
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,560
another day of hope.
