| 0:00.0 | Welcome to episode 3,134 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and here you are |
| 0:10.9 | getting ready to do one of the best things you could possibly do for yourself today as you get ready to be guided with insight about loving kindness and then be guided on a loving kindness journey. |
| 0:28.9 | And I have a request. |
| 0:31.9 | I request that you try as best as you can to do today's meditation outside. |
| 0:41.2 | Now what I like to do, this is day seven of this seven day series on the five |
| 0:50.1 | stages of loving kindness. What I like to do is on the final episode I like to go on a |
| 0:58.2 | walking meditation and that's when I go outside and I go for a walk and I engage all my senses, my sight, I take a look around at the colors and the textures around me, sound, I notice even |
| 1:21.2 | a car's noisy muffler rushing by. I also notice birds chirping and people |
| 1:28.7 | talking that I might pass and then I'll notice touch how does the wind feel against my skin or maybe the sun is |
| 1:38.7 | shining down on me and taste do I have any flavors that are lingering or fragrances? Maybe there's a certain |

| 2:15.0 | At the very least, if you could meditate outside today, |
| 2:19.0 | that would be a fantastic way to reward yourself for all you've been doing this week. |
| 2:25.7 | Now in today's episode you're going to be guided in a meditation that is going to help you to consider how you live through the different stages |
| 2:42.3 | of loving kindness. Now remember loving kindness has |
| 2:47.8 | many stages and it's important to experience the fullness of loving kindness to master all the stages. |
| 3:00.5 | And it's not easy. |
| 3:01.8 | It takes resilience and practice. You begin with the very first stage, |
| 3:07.6 | which isn't so difficult, it's expressing loving kindness towards yourself, compassion for yourself, and then you move on to sharing it with friends. |
| 3:18.8 | That's not so difficult either, sharing it with people you like. |
