This is Episode 2425 of the Daily Meditation Podcast.

I'm Mary Mechley and welcome to a brand new meditation series.

This week we are exploring a very special theme, which is an honor of you, especially those of you who reach out to me and share with me your journey.

I thought that what I would do with this week's theme is to explore meditation remedies for some of the top stressors out there.

These are stressors. You reach out to me about again and again.

And I want to share a message in each episode that inspired me to create the meditation remedy to help cope with the top stressor.

Some of the top stressors you'll be exploring this week. In today's episode you will explore the pain of living your life with purpose.

Whether it's through the work you do, through how you raise your family, through how you interact with your community, there's a lot of pain and feeling as though maybe you're not enough.

So you'll be guided to explore your life purpose in today's meditation.

Throughout the week you will explore fear, grief, relationships, anxiety, sleep, and health.

You'll also explore a bit about dealing with financial stress, which is one of the top stressors, especially these days.

Know that this may be a series you want to explore a little more deeply. And for that reason I have an app where I share a little bit longer guided meditations and more in-depth insight.

You also get several tools such as a journal with a daily reflection question and a guide with all the techniques and herbal tea to support you for the week, a yoga asana or pose to support you through the week.

And every technique I share with you will be right there at your fingertips. You can look back on this guide again and again so you don't have to remember.

What was the affirmation or what was the breathing technique I'd like to do it now because I can't remember.

That's why I created this guide so you wouldn't have to go back and listen to each episode to get the technique that you might want to do.

So the Sip and Om meditation app, you can try it for absolutely free for a full week so you could listen to this entire week's series free.

As you go throughout this series you have a challenge as you do in every week's theme. The challenge is a way to have a little fun with the theme and also to explore the theme a little more deeply.

So your challenge for this week is an inner wisdom challenge. I'll be sharing with you along the way.

Experts research showing that one of the most important ways you can begin to monitor and soothe your emotions is by listening and noticing how you're feeling and naming the emotion.

And I do this with you when we meditate together you're going to be focusing a little more on this important quality as we go throughout this week's series.

So your quest is an inner wisdom quest where every day pause and listen to what your body is telling you.
