| 0:00.0 | Welcome to episode 2,455 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:07.4 | I'm Mary Mechley and welcome back to day three of our series. |
| 0:14.6 | This week we're exploring the theme of happiness. |
| 0:19.6 | And in today's episode you're going to be guided using a powerful breathing technique. |
