| 0:04.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:08.0 | How are you doing? |
| 0:11.0 | I want to welcome you to a brand new meditation series. We're beginning today and every |
| 0:19.8 | single week we launch into a series that takes us deeply into a particular theme. |
| 0:31.9 | And when you explore a theme for a full week using different meditation |
| 0:37.8 | techniques to help you manage stress to manage and to give yourself more peace, energy and clarity, |
