| 0:00.0 | Welcome to episode 3,117 of your daily meditation podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and here you are as we land on day four of this week's meditation |
| 0:19.6 | series where you are exploring the art of listening and as always I'm going to share some |
| 0:27.6 | listening insight with you and then you're guided in a meditation using the featured technique for today the |
| 0:37.7 | moudra, the Anjali moudra, which is often referred to as the prayer |
| 0:43.8 | mudra, and I'll guide you through it right now |
| 0:46.2 | because it's one of the easiest mudras to do. |
| 0:50.6 | And if you want to see a photo of the mudra, you know where to find it. It is on my Sippinome meditation app. |
| 0:59.0 | You can try the app for a week free. You get access to over 3,000 guided meditations and with each |
| 1:07.0 | series there is a journal and there's also a slowdown guide and on the slowdown guide you'll see the mudra, the tea that's featured for this |
| 1:18.6 | week's series, that's an herb that goes along with the week's theme. You see the affirmation, the breathing technique, |

| 2:16.8 | moudra as you are guided in the meditation today and I'll share with you how else to use this |
| 2:24.4 | moudra so you could place your hands in this position which can be discreet |
| 2:30.0 | people will simply think you're pressing your hands together at your chest and this |
| 2:37.5 | can help you as you listen with presence and compassion to someone. I've been practicing it and it really does |
| 2:47.6 | help me to listen better. It's as though by doing something with my body putting my hands in this mudra position it's a |
