| 0:04.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:08.0 | How are you doing today? |
| 0:10.0 | I want to congratulate you if you have been following along this week in our Simplicity series. |
| 0:19.0 | If so, congratulations because this is the final episode and I'm proud of you for going through a seven part simplicity series. If you are just joining us you are in the right place because you |
