| 0:00.0 | Welcome to episode 3, 2016 of your daily guided meditation. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm honored to share with you today's New Year's Day meditation. |
| 0:14.0 | This is a way for you to launch into a brand new year, |
| 0:19.0 | or you can do this meditation as you begin any journey. I recommend you gather around you four candles, |
| 0:29.6 | maybe votive candles, something that is fire safe, and you might even have a picture of water in case |
| 0:39.1 | it's windy and you're doing this outdoors like I am today, and you just want to make sure to always be careful with fire and have a journal with you |

| 2:06.2 | outdoors wherever you are. And so we begin this New Year's Day celebration. |
| 2:14.8 | To start, I encourage you to stand up. |
| 2:21.5 | And as you stand up I encourage you to ground your feet. This means to |
| 2:30.1 | press your feet firmly into the ground wherever you're standing. |
| 2:34.8 | They say the hardest pose in yoga is standing on your own two feet, |
