| 0:00.0 | This is episode 1,183. |
| 0:04.8 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:08.8 | I honor you for showing up for yourself today. I know it can be difficult to choose yourself first |
| 0:21.0 | over all the other things you may have to do today. |
| 0:25.0 | But I want you to know that this could be the most important decision you make all day, because meditation is that powerful. It impacts your entire life. |
| 0:41.8 | So give yourself a lot of credit for getting ready to meditate. I'm Mary Meckley and I share a different |
| 0:51.6 | meditation technique every day on the podcast. The techniques are always |
| 0:57.4 | customized around a theme we explore in depth for a full week. |
| 1:03.6 | And we do this so you can master a particular quality |
| 1:08.0 | in your life. |
| 1:09.7 | Just like Benjamin Franklin did. |

| 2:20.3 | Friday's episode, although you can listen to these episodes in any order you want. |
| 2:30.0 | But every Friday I encourage you to explore an herb because herbs can benefit you in a similar way as do meditation techniques. Of course you want to make sure the herb isn't going |
| 2:48.4 | to harm you. So you'll want to check with your physician, especially if you take other medications or you're |
| 2:57.5 | pregnant or you're breastfeeding. Definitely check with your physician. Now with that being said don't be |
| 3:08.0 | afraid of the herbs. Just take care when you use them. |
