Summary
Meditation to experience joy and vitality. In this guided meditation you'll have the option to use a mudra (often referred to as yoga in your hands) to decrease depression and anxiety. It helps you tap into your zest for life. You'll inhale and exhale to the count of 27 and you can do this breathing technique 27 times. Be sure to stop the technique if you feel dizzy. If that happens, simply resume your normal breath. When we're children we naturally tap into our passion as we play and explore the world. As we get older we often let our passions slip away. In this guided meditation you'll revisit your childhood passions. As always, it's not necessary to do any of the meditation techniques -- they are simply to help you focus your mind and calm your body. This is part 4 of a 7-Part Meditation Series to Get Back Your Zest For Life, Episodes 463-469. As always, you don't have to do the meditation techniques -- they are simply there to help you transition from your busy day to a state of stillness. The techniques also help to calm "monkey mind," when your thoughts continuously interrupt your meditation.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. This is Mary Meckley and I want to congratulate |
| 0:07.5 | you for giving yourself permission to slow down to connect to the best part of who you are. |
| 0:16.2 | And this is episode 466. |
| 0:23.6 | And in today's meditation, you're going to be guided in about a 10-minute meditation using a technique called a mudra. |
| 0:33.7 | And mudras are often referred to as yoga in your hands. So you're simply going to position |
| 0:40.2 | your hands in a certain way. And this helps to activate your nervous system. It sends signals to |
| 0:46.7 | your brain. And it helps you to feel a certain way. So mudras are very fantastic to use throughout your day because you can do them |
| 0:59.2 | anytime, anywhere, not only when you're meditating. Now, I want to mention that you don't have to do |
| 1:05.7 | the mudra in order to do today's meditation. I share a different meditation technique every single day |
| 1:13.4 | because I've found that meditation techniques help transition you |
| 1:19.4 | to a state of peace and calm |
| 1:22.7 | so that you can relax your body and transition to a place where you feel ready to meditate. |
| 1:32.4 | It's just so hard to sit down and immediately, oh, you know, you're meditating. |
| 1:39.1 | It's not always going to work like that, even for longtime meditators. |
| 1:44.4 | It can take some time to transition yourself into a place where you feel relaxed and calm. |
| 1:54.1 | Now before we get started, I do want to mention that you can find all the different |
| 1:58.6 | meditation techniques that I'm using today over at my website |
| 2:02.2 | at sip and om.com. This is the joy meditation series. Every day this week, we're exploring a meditation |
| 2:10.5 | helping you to recapture your joy and your zest and passion for life. |
| 2:18.1 | Those feelings that you felt when you used to wake up in the morning when you were a child |
| 2:22.9 | and you couldn't wait to run and greet your day. |
| 2:26.6 | This is a meditation all about that. |
