| 0:03.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:06.0 | I hope you are doing well today. |
| 0:10.0 | And we continue with our series. We're exploring this week which is all about joy. |
| 0:17.0 | In today's episode you're going to discover a moodra technique to help you experience more compassion. |
| 0:31.5 | This is a moodra that benefits your heart health and you can do it |
| 0:38.4 | whether you are seated meditating or whether or not you are right in the midst of a busy day. |
