| 0:00.0 | This is Episode 2350 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm Mary Mechley and welcome back to Day 3 of our series. |
| 0:12.8 | This week, we are exploring an important theme. |
| 0:18.3 | The theme this week is finding your purpose in life and then living it. |
| 0:28.1 | In each episode of this week's series, you are guided using a different meditation technique. |
| 0:37.2 | These are techniques you can do anytime, whether you're meditating or maybe you're right in the |

| 2:21.9 | It's not unlike any other endeavor you undertake such as maybe exercise. |
| 2:29.4 | Some days you feel stronger when you exercise. Maybe you had a great night's sleep or you |
| 2:36.4 | fueled yourself really well. Meditation is the same way. Expect that you'll have days that |
