Summary
"Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind, and spirit."
~ B.K.S. Iyengar
Have you ever witnessed firsthand your mind-body connection? Many people who have overcome seemingly insurmountable health odds claim that tapping into their mind-body connection cured them of serious disease and illness. This week, you'll be exploring how mindfulness and meditation can help manage your very gene expression.
I'm sharing with you the full 30-minute guided meditations I offer on the Sip and Om meditation app. This week's series was recorded several years ago. It was a fun series to research. We'll be following along with the movie, "Connection," by Shannon Harvey, an Australian journalist, and filmmaker.
This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, Mind/Body Connection, episodes 632-638.

| 0:00.0 | This is episode 635 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:06.4 | I'm Mary Mechley and welcome back to day four of the series we're exploring this week. |
| 0:14.0 | The theme this week is your mind by connection. |
| 0:19.1 | And you may notice that low number, we are currently in the 2000s of episodes that I've recorded over seven years. |
| 0:29.8 | Well, this episode is in the 600s because I recorded it my second year of having this podcast. |
| 0:40.2 | I get a lot of requests from you asking if I could hand pick occasionally a meditation series from my collection. |
| 0:52.2 | And so I am honoring this request. |
| 0:55.7 | I really enjoyed recording this particular series on your mind body connection because we delved into how mindfulness can actually manage your gene expression. |
| 1:13.0 | There's a lot of science these days showing the mind body connection. |
| 1:19.6 | So I hope you enjoy the series. |
| 1:24.2 | In the series, the meditation technique you'll be exploring is the mudra. |

| 1:47.9 | Now, how you can use this meditation experience is you'll be guided through some insight, which I know many of you love. |
| 1:58.6 | And then you will be guided in a meditation. |
| 2:04.4 | You might simply want to do the full body relaxation that's offered and then you're done. |
| 2:11.0 | Or you might like to be guided after the full body relaxation through the technique and then maybe you're good there. |
| 2:21.5 | Or you might like to be guided through the remainder of the entire meditation. |
| 2:27.3 | And I play the music a little longer so that you can go into inner stillness. |
| 2:35.4 | So this is how you can use the meditation that you're going to listen to and also throughout the week. |
