| 0:05.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:09.0 | And I welcome you to our second episode in this week's series on laying the foundation |
| 0:19.2 | for your inner life where we're following along with the famous prayer St. Francis of Assisi |
| 0:28.8 | wrote way back in the 12th century. So whatever your religious background or spiritual beliefs, I think most people find |
| 0:40.8 | beauty and simplicity in the prayer of St. Francis. |
| 0:46.0 | And so in this week's series, |
| 0:50.0 | I encourage you to develop your own personal creed or foundation for your inner life. |
| 0:58.9 | And this is really what St Francis's prayer for peace was all about. It was the qualities he wanted to |

| 2:18.8 | An affirmation is a positive statement you repeat to help you focus your thoughts with intention. |
| 2:27.4 | And this is a great week to use an affirmation as you focus on creating your own personal foundation for your inner life and you may not have thought about doing this for yourself before. |
| 2:44.0 | So think about the qualities in your own life you want to focus on. |
| 2:50.0 | So, before I share the affirmation, let me read to you from St. Francis's prayer, the part about forgiveness. |
