| 0:00.0 | How's it going, everybody? Welcome to the Positive Mindset Podcast, we're work together to raise our |
| 0:04.3 | vibration, lift our perspective, and build a positive mindset. My name is Henry, and in this |
| 0:09.4 | episode, I have a special guest where we're going to talk about how to get your mind in a positive |
| 0:14.3 | perspective so that you can move forward. If you are stuck in fear, doubt, depression, whatever it is that is holding you back. |
| 0:22.7 | And in this episode, we're going to dive in to the way that you can change your perspective |
| 0:26.8 | so that you can start moving forward a little bit at a time and create the life that you want. |
| 0:32.0 | But before we get started, we'll take a few moments to slow down, zero in. |
| 0:35.7 | We're going to take some deep healing, meditative breaths to |
| 0:39.3 | help us align on the frequency that we want in our lives. So you can pick a word. It can be love, |

| 1:37.5 | So imagine that you were surrounded by the most healing, uplifting energy that's meant specifically for you. |
| 1:43.3 | It could have a certain color, a certain taste, |
| 1:45.3 | a certain smell, however you imagine it. And when you breathe it in, it's going to break down |
| 1:49.8 | the negative blocks, the barriers, the weight, everything that has just been holding you back. |
| 1:55.0 | And then as you exhale, then take all of that with it, leaving you in a more positive state. |
| 2:00.1 | So let's go ahead and take a deep breath in. |
