| 0:00.0 | This is episode 1,180. |
| 0:04.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:08.0 | And welcome to another episode in the series we're exploring this week, which is a pretty important |
| 0:18.8 | series that just about everybody can relate to and that is how to even kill your moods, how to |
| 0:30.6 | balance your emotions so that you can cultivate the kind of mood you want to be in, |
| 0:40.0 | rather than to feel your emotions pulled in all kinds of directions and as a result |
| 0:48.0 | sinking into moods you would rather not experience. I'm Mary Meckley and I share a different |
| 0:57.4 | meditation technique every day here on the podcast and each technique is customized around a theme we explore |
| 1:06.6 | in depth for a week and as I mentioned it's all about moods this week. In today's episode you're going to discover a breathing |
| 1:16.7 | technique you can do in your meditation today. And as you do this breathing technique, I want to share a little insight with you. |

| 2:37.9 | competitive spirit going on and I was really feeling my mood sink. But when I thought about this, I thought about how, well, what's the truth here? The truth is that regardless of whether people help me find great |
| 3:00.0 | resources or share their even study more. |
| 3:03.0 | I need to find my son a tutor, |
| 3:08.0 | or he could even study more on his own. |
| 3:11.0 | There's a way for him to achieve his goal. And so when I thought about that, I thought that even if they shared their resources with me, well I could have just called up |
| 3:28.8 | the tutors they recommended and realized, oh you know I don't think this is a really good match for my son's |
