0:00.0	This is episode 1,000.45. Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast.
0:07.0	I want to wish you a happy Easter if you're celebrating Easter today.
0:14.0	And I want to welcome you to the launch of a brand new meditation series.
0:20.0	This is part one of our seven part series we're launching into this week on how to use different meditation techniques for self-care.
0:35.0	And this is a request that comes from a long time listener,
0:40.0	Beverly.
0:41.0	Beverly wanted a series on self-love to where rather than relying on other people's
1:00.6	opinions of you and letting those opinions influence how you feel about yourself.
1:07.8	So I thought this was an important topic that many people battle with, But I want to mention that as I considered different

2:33.0	wants, how to practice some good self-care,
2:38.0	how to set boundaries, how to protect yourself,
2:42.0	how to forgive yourself, and how to forgive yourself and how to live intentionally with your own true nature,
2:51.3	drawing that out a little bit more. And this is a series that I adapted from a
2:58.2	seven-step protocol for self-love, and this is from Dr Deborah Koshava and this is from an article she wrote
3:09.6	for psychology today where she talks about what self-love is and how to cultivate it.
