| 0:05.0 | Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:09.0 | I'm Mary Meckley and I honor you for showing up for yourself today as you get ready to meditate. |
| 0:20.0 | In today's episode, you're going to be guided as you combine the different meditation |
| 0:28.6 | techniques we've explored throughout this week's series into your meditation. |
| 0:37.8 | And our theme we've been exploring this week is forest bathing. |
