| 0:00.0 | This is episode 1,618. Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Mechley and I |
| 0:10.6 | honor you for giving your self permission to slow down and connect to the best part of |
| 0:19.1 | who you are in today's episode. You are going to discover a meditation technique for self-care, |
| 0:30.6 | and this is part of our self-care gratitude meditation series this week. And you will also discover |
| 0:41.6 | an herb that can benefit you in a similar way as do meditation techniques. |
| 0:50.3 | As you settle yourself down to meditate today, keep in mind that the best way to truly meditate |

| 3:47.5 | almost as if it's a competition for how long they meditate or if they're doing yoga, |
