1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,080
Love is the miracle drug. 
Love allows us to overcome pain 

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,800
and disappointment. 
It allows us to persevere 

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:15,160
through struggles. 
It restores our hopes and 

4
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:20,400
dreams. 
God is love, and what God loves 

5
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:27,480
most is you. 
Let's go ahead and get started 

6
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,360
by gently bringing your 
attention to the breath. 

7
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:43,200
Notice the rise and the fall of 
the chest, and when you're 

8
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:49,240
ready, let your eyes close like 
the sunsets. 

9
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,400
Take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

10
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,560
I have loved you with a love 
that lasts forever. 

11
00:01:12,410 --> 00:01:19,050
And again, I have loved you with
a love that lasts forever. 

12
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,000
Bring your attention to the 
feeling of the breath. 

13
00:01:44,110 --> 00:01:51,670
Let it settle into a natural 
rhythm, effortless and easy. 

14
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,360
Notice how good it feels just to
breathe. 

15
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:25,520
With each inhale, let your body 
fill up with new life. 

16
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:35,720
With each exhale, release and 
let your body relax. 

17
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:52,680
Feel your feet on the floor and 
the weight of your body in the 

18
00:02:52,680 --> 00:03:07,640
chair. 
Now gently bring your attention 

19
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:18,160
to your emotions, just noticing 
the feelings that you brought 

20
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:31,610
with you today. 
Not engaging with the emotions, 

21
00:03:33,250 --> 00:03:36,850
just noticing them as an 
observer. 

22
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:51,160
Remember that you can leave 
those feelings right where they 

23
00:03:51,160 --> 00:04:03,800
are, just allow those thoughts 
to bubble up and out. 

24
00:04:13,940 --> 00:04:19,860
Remember, today is a new day 
with new opportunities. 

25
00:04:22,780 --> 00:04:43,880
God is working in your life. 
With a gradual ease, take a nice

26
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:53,810
big breath. 
Be intentional with the breath. 

27
00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:06,940
Big deep inhales and nice long 
exhales. 

28
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:27,120
With each breath, allow the 
muscles to soften and let go. 

29
00:05:43,220 --> 00:05:48,300
Feel that sense of gravity and 
weight in the body. 

30
00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:58,060
You're just uncovering the 
natural calm that's always 

31
00:05:58,060 --> 00:06:16,240
accessible through God. 
Now with ease, bring your 

32
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,440
awareness to the sounds in the 
room. 

33
00:06:30,060 --> 00:06:35,660
Just listening to the sounds 
with an easy curiosity. 

34
00:06:39,300 --> 00:06:42,420
Not placing judgment on the 
sounds. 

35
00:06:43,660 --> 00:06:49,720
Just noticing the sounds and 
accepting them as part of this 

36
00:06:49,720 --> 00:07:04,690
practice. 
If the thoughts take you away, 

37
00:07:05,530 --> 00:07:09,450
it's OK. 
When you notice the thoughts, 

38
00:07:10,490 --> 00:07:14,850
gently bring your awareness back
to the sounds. 

39
00:07:26,070 --> 00:07:46,840
Just noticing and listening. 
Now for a moment or two, let 

40
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,040
your awareness go where it wants
to go. 

41
00:08:04,170 --> 00:08:10,730
Take this verse with you. 
I have loved you with a love 

42
00:08:10,730 --> 00:08:28,600
that lasts forever. 
When it feels natural, bring 

43
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:35,640
your awareness back to the room,
just noticing the room with a 

44
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:41,559
gentle appreciation. 
And when you're ready, allow 

45
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:47,360
your eyes to slowly open. 
Take a moment to notice how you 

46
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,480
feel. 
I hope you feel a little more 

47
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,640
relaxed. 
We'll see you again tomorrow for

48
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,040
another day of hope.
