Summary
"I love learning from your app as you have so many facts about herbs and meditation techniques, too. I have my own dance school and I do sessions with my students where we talk about life and I use some of your techniques with them!"
~Fellow Meditator, Sarah from Liverpool in the UK
What does simplicity mean to you? As you begin a new year, you may have goals to organize your home, plans to be more productive, and steps to take better care of your health. We often begin with the external around us as we improve our lives. The best way to improve your exterior life is to simplify your interior life. In this week's series, you'll discover how to improve your interior life. This is part 3 of a 7-part Simplicity meditation series, episodes 2194-2200. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: You're invited to take part in a Simplicity Quest. You're encouraged to disengage from all media. Let go of the external this week and focus on your interior life.

| 0:08.8 | I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you to day three of our series. |
| 0:14.2 | We're exploring this week with the theme of simplicity. |
| 0:20.2 | You have a challenge. Your quest this week, which I encourage |
| 0:27.3 | you to do every day this week is to simplify your interior life by refraining from media. Now I know many of you have a lot of different sites you |
| 0:43.9 | like to visit and help uplift you and that is perfect. You want to feel uplifted this week |
| 0:51.4 | as you simplify. Stay away from the news media and also some of the |
| 1:00.0 | social media platforms that don't offer value but rather they're just a distraction. You might |

| 2:15.7 | discipline can be a great benefit to simplicity in your interior life. |
| 2:22.3 | As you begin a new year and create goals and focus a little more on how you're living your life, |
| 2:31.3 | this process of goal setting requires discipline. One of my favorite definitions |
| 2:37.9 | of discipline is discipline is the result of your free will making a decision. So when you consider |
| 2:49.8 | what you want to do with your life and how you want to live it, |
| 2:54.7 | how you want to feel inside, discipline helps you to formulate how to get there. This might be |
