0:00.0	This is episode 2,172 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and I do show up daily here as I have for six and a half years. If you are a regular
0:17.2	listener and I know many of you have listened for all six and a half years with me. I honor you so much and I've really enjoyed
0:26.7	meeting you as you reach out to me on the best way is through my Instagram. It's the Sippin'Om Instagram. If you send me a direct
0:36.6	message there, I'd love to share your journeys as I'm doing more often here on the podcast so you realize you are not alone and so you can
0:46.1	begin to meet your fellow meditators. If you are brand new know that you are doing one of the most important things you could do for yourself

2:26.7	distraction and fear and the world of confusion as we wonder what's really going on these days.
2:37.0	Truth is always within you and this is what you'll be guided to tap into as you meditate today.
2:47.0	Make sure you're subscribed to the podcast so you don't miss an episode. What you're doing for yourself is too important and the
