Summary
Be guided in a meditation for inner peace. You'll be guided using an affirmation and a mudra as you guide yourself to a place of inner stillness. You'll also discover how rosemary tea can benefit your immune system, improve your memory, reduce inflammation, and provide you with many other health benefits. This meditation is personalized from a reflection in the classic book, Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, who was a Roman emperor who ruled from 161-180 A.D. His reflections are based on Stoic philosophy which emphasizes living a peaceful life by practicing self control to attain inner peace by overcoming adversity, and honoring your true nature -- not forcing yourself to be a particular way. This is so aligned with how I share meditation so I'm excited about this week's series. This is part 3 of a 7-Part Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, Episodes 604-610. 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. I'm Mary Meckley and I'm a meditation teacher |
| 0:07.1 | who shares a different meditation technique every day on the podcast, customized around a weekly |
| 0:14.4 | theme. And our theme for this week is the meditations of Marcus Aurelius. |
| 0:21.6 | Marcus Aurelius was a Roman emperor in A.D. 161. |
| 0:29.6 | And he wrote down his reflections of the day, |
| 0:34.6 | not in a book to disperse among the people, but rather as a diary or a journal |
| 0:44.8 | of his reflections on life. And so the journal wasn't discovered until after his death, |
| 0:53.2 | and now it has become a classic book. So I hope you |
| 0:57.9 | enjoy the meditations of Marcus Aurelius. We've done a passage from his book in each day's meditation |
| 1:07.8 | in this series. And I've customized a meditation technique to go along with each |
| 1:13.7 | of his reflections that I'm sharing. We're at episode 6009 today and every Friday I always share |
| 1:23.6 | with you a meditation as well as an herbal tea that supports you because the herbs are |
| 1:30.7 | so powerful they support you in a similar way as does the meditation techniques so I'll be |
| 1:39.0 | sharing with you the benefits of rosemary tea and using rosemary in your cooking. |
| 1:48.2 | And as you do this meditation today, reflect on what you can do in your life to give yourself |
| 1:57.6 | inner peace because that's what Marcus Aurelius wrote about, all of his reflections, |
| 2:05.6 | reflect the philosophy of the day that a lot of people followed, which was stoicism. |
| 2:12.6 | And that is where you do the right thing, you do what is morally right. Regardless of your emotions or how you're |
| 2:22.8 | feeling about something, you take your ego out of it and you do the right thing. So you take out |
| 2:29.2 | all the drama, all your attachments, all your likes and your dislikes, and you do what is the moral thing to do. |
| 2:40.0 | So it's a great way to approach life. |
| 2:43.0 | It really turns upside down a lot of our concepts about our own life. |
