0:00.0	This is episode 1,991 of the Daily Meditation Podcast.
0:09.7	I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you to a brand new series we're launching into this week.
0:18.0	The theme of this series we'll be exploring is how to be productive during a crisis. For many of you as we're all in this together, the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic,
0:41.1	we are staying safe at home.
0:45.4	Hopefully you are doing this.
0:47.8	Now that is if you are lucky,
