0:00.0	This is episode 2, 131 of the Daily Meditation Podcast.
0:07.0	I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you to a brand new meditation series we're exploring this week. There is so much
0:16.9	going on in the world over which we have no control. So in this week's series I wanted to guide you on a journey within
0:30.9	where you let go of the distractions of the world and all that's going on and you listen to your own inner wisdom.
0:42.0	In this week's series you'll explore a different meditation
0:48.6	technique every day to help you balance your emotions as you go more inward.
0:57.0	And in each week's series, you have a challenge.
1:02.8	This week's challenge, which I encourage you to do every day this week through the series,
1:10.0	is to go on a wisdom quest. Your wisdom quest has you listening to and applying your
1:19.7	inner wisdom. And if you don't do so already in this week's series, I recommend you keep a journal.
1:29.2	When you journal your thoughts, even just jotting down a few reflections, especially before and after you meditate, this helps you to process your emotions.
1:44.6	Journaling can also help you find solutions to challenges you may be facing. What I recommend is that as you sit down and get ready to meditate or
1:57.8	maybe even in the morning when you wake up and start your day, You do a brain dump where you write down all your worries, all your
2:08.9	cares, all your fears and anxiety write down.
2:15.0	And then sit in stillness, meditate.
2:19.6	Do the days meditation technique. and then write down your reflections.
2:27.2	And as you go throughout the week, you may notice a pattern as to what your intuition and your wisdom is revealing to you. There's a lot of
2:40.8	research on how important journaling is with processing your emotions.
2:48.4	So where can you get a journal? You can get a journal on the SIP and O'm meditation app. That is our sponsor for this episode and as you go throughout this series. On the Sippenome
3:07.8	meditation app each week you receive a journal and you also receive a guide with the insight and the
3:18.6	techniques you'll be exploring throughout this week's series. The best part is you can try the app for
3:25.7	two weeks free access to the full app of over 2,000 30 minute guided meditations.
