Summary

Your breath and your emotional state are interconnected. When you calm your breath, you calm your emotions. It's difficult to know what's really true these days. Separating truth from deception has become more difficult than ever. Formerly trusted institutions such as political, economical, educational, health, and judicial organizations have sown seeds of mistrust over the decades. Many people are speaking and demanding their truth be heard. The truth is what is so badly needed in our world today. Sifting through lies and deception requires listening. Each time you sit down to meditate, you tap into your inner truth. The more you share your truth, the more integrity you add to the world. This week, you'll be exploring truth from the perspective of the ancient tradition of Satya, or truthfulness, from Pantanjali's Yoga Sutras. This is part of a collection of meditation series focused on sending more peace and love into the world. You'll focus on truthfulness to help cultivate a calmer, kinder approach to the problems in the world today. This is part 3 of a 7-part Truthfulness meditation series episodes 2103-2109. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: You're invited to take part in a Truth Quest where every day this week you become aware of thoughts, words, and actions that aren't based on truth. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION TECHNIQUES: Affirmation - "I listen to my inner truth." Breathing - Inhale: Calm your thoughts. Exhale: Listen to your truth. Mudra - Ushas Mudra Chakra - 5th - at throat - inner peace Herb - Tulsi - immunity Yoga Asana - Ukatasana - Chair Pose
