| 0:00.0 | This is episode 1,552. Welcome to the Daily Meditation podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and I honor you for giving yourself permission to slow down. In fact, it does seem as though we often need permission to slow down because we can feel |
| 0:26.7 | guilty if we take some time just for ourselves. It can seem so decadent, but actually it's a necessity, a vital part of your health and |
| 0:48.3 | well-being in today's episode. You'll discover a breathing technique that can help improve your health by reducing stress. |
| 1:03.6 | And this is episode three in our seven-part series on your heart health. |
| 1:11.0 | Heart disease is rampant in many countries, especially industrialized nations. |
| 1:19.1 | And I shared with you in the earlier episode a story of the town of Rosetto in eastern Pennsylvania in the United States that went from |
| 1:32.6 | zero heart disease, zero crime, community interaction at all levels. |
| 1:43.4 | And Rosetta was transformed in the 70s into a suburbanized community |
| 1:52.6 | where people started to live independently with fenced yards in separate homes, |

| 2:42.4 | not only in the community of Rosetto, |
| 2:45.4 | but even in a lot of the blue zones, |
| 2:49.3 | the areas of the world where people tend to live for a long time. |
| 2:56.8 | These are communities where many times the diet is more the Mediterranean diet or the Japanese |
| 3:04.2 | diet of fish, but in many cases, it's not so much the diet because in some of these |
| 3:14.0 | places, people are very overweight, very obese, in fact, especially the women, but they're living for a long time because they're so happy. |
| 3:30.0 | And they feel as though even as they age, they still have an important role in society. |
| 3:37.6 | And I'm thinking of Okinawa, which is a blue zone, and I happen to live on the island of Okinawa for a year. |
| 3:47.8 | And the diet there is comprised of a lot of fried food, especially fried pork. |
