| 0:04.1 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:08.7 | I'm Mary Meckley, and I honor you right where you are as you get ready to meditate. |
| 0:16.0 | In today's episode, you're going to be guided into a gratitude meditation. And this is the final |
| 0:27.4 | episode of our seven-part series we've been exploring all about relaxation. And we've been doing a featured, powerful ancient technique called Hong Sa. Some of you may |
| 0:45.1 | have already been familiar with the Hongsa technique, but it is a technique I do every time I sit down |
| 0:52.9 | to meditate. And I sit down to meditate. |

| 2:43.0 | situations that have happened during your day before you sat down to meditate and you |
| 2:49.1 | just allow your heart to soften and open up, then you know |
| 2:56.0 | you are reaching your finest because that really is your finest when you are operating |
| 3:06.0 | from your heart's tendencies of love, gratitude, and compassion. |
