This is episode 2,153 of the Daily Meditation podcast.

I'm Mary Meckley and here you are getting ready to do one of the best things for yourself

you could possibly do.

In today's episode, we continue with our gratitude series.

The whole theme for the week is gratitude.

When you focus on a particular theme each week, you're able to realize results better than if you simply sit down each day and randomly

meditate. When you focus with intention on a particular quality, you begin to notice results.

In today's meditation, you are going to be guided as you repeat an affirmation

with intention. This is an affirmation that's going to help you experience gratitude

in your life. And I want to share with you that this episode is sponsored by my very

own Sip and Om meditation app. I created this app as a way for those of you who are at the point

where you want to be guided in deeper, longer meditations

for 30 minutes and explore a weekly theme more deeply with a journal as well as a slow down

guide. So you can try the Sipino Meditation app for seven days free access

to the full app. Of over 2,000 guided meditations, hundreds of meditation themes. If you are

in the right place here, Ready for your many meditation,

make sure that you subscribe to the podcast.

That way you can make sure you meditate every day.

Consistency is the key to maintaining a beneficial meditation ritual.

So your affirmation for today is going to allow you to deepen your experiences of gratitude

and let go of rumination.

So as you repeat the affirmation, I want you to do something important. and let go of rumination.
