Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and I'm so honored to have you here meditating.

And I want to congratulate you for giving yourself permission to slow down and connect to the best part of who you are. And every single day on the podcast,

I release a brand new meditation customized around a weekly theme. And I always share a different

technique. And you don't have to do the techniques they're there

for you as an option to help you focus your mind when you get that monkey mind

when your mind starts to wander but you can also do meditation techniques

throughout your day when you're not in your nice meditation space.

Because usually that's not when you're going to encounter your biggest stress triggers.

You're going to encounter your stress triggers usually when you are out going about your day.

And so I encourage you to try these meditation techniques when you encounter your stress triggers throughout the day.

Well, in today's episode, which is episode 653, we begin a brand new meditation series.

And our series for this week coincides with launching into spring.

So we are celebrating spring where I live in the northern hemisphere as I record this.

If you live in the southern hemisphere, you are getting ready to celebrate autumn.

So this is a time when the seasons are getting ready to shift and to change. With autumn, you're becoming more

interiorized. The earth around you is becoming quieter and is transitioning. And this also,

you are very connected to your outdoor environment this is going to create a more

reflective space for you well if you are going into spring maybe you're

noticing the cherry blossoms start to bloom you're noticing the buds on

flowers tulips daffodils start to come out.

And you are realizing a rebirth. After the quiet months of fall and winter, you're noticing

a rebirth. So I thought that this was a great time. I love to share a detox, a detoxification, cleansing renewal series with you every time the seasons change.
