| 0:28.9 | where we connect to the best part of who we are. And I'm Mary Mechley. I am honored to be sharing |
| 0:40.6 | today's meditation technique with you. It is a mudra technique. Now you never have to do the |
| 0:48.4 | technique I share with you. If you're not really quite sure what a mudra is, no worries. |
| 0:54.9 | I like to share techniques that you could do whether you're seated meditating or |
