| 0:15.6 | Welcome to Seven Good Minutes. I'm Clyde Lee Dennis. Thanks for joining me for what I believe will be seven of the |
| 0:22.3 | most enriching minutes of your day. In today's episode of Seven Good Minutes in our reflective Sunday |
| 0:27.0 | segment, we talk about the practice of self-compassion. Enjoy. Self-compassion is the practice of |
