| 0:05.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:08.0 | I'm Mary Meckley and you are doing a good thing for yourself as you get ready to meditate. |
| 0:16.0 | In today's episode, you are going to discover an affirmation you can carry into your own meditation today. Our theme for this week will |
| 0:28.1 | explore for an entire week how to be content and to be content is all about being happy in a peaceful way. |
| 0:41.8 | That's what content means. |
| 0:45.9 | To be happy in a peaceful way. |
