Summary
"We feel unhappy not just because something bad has happened, but also because of the swirling thoughts about what happened."
~ Haemin Sunim, "The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down"
When someone believes in you, it can make you feel as though you could soar above the challenges that come your way. It often takes just one person to believe in you to help you achieve great things. This week you are introduced to your fellow meditator, Sarah Royale, a dance teacher, and owner of a dance studio in Liverpool, UK. During the first episode, you'll hear Sarah describe how she helps to empower young people to believe in themselves. This week you'll be guided to believe in yourself.
This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, Improve Your Confidence, episodes 2467-2473.

| 0:00.0 | This is episode 2470 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. |
| 0:06.6 | I'm Mary Meckley and welcome to day four of our series this week. |
| 0:13.0 | How are you doing? |
| 0:15.1 | This week, the theme we're exploring is improve confidence. |
| 0:20.4 | And I hope you're feeling a little more in touch |
| 0:24.7 | with your inner truth to feel more alive and confident. And you have a special challenge this |
| 0:33.4 | week. This is a challenge that is based off the interview from episode one of one of your |
| 0:41.7 | fellow meditators, Sarah Royal. This is called a compassion quest and it has to do with what |
| 0:51.5 | Sarah shared in the interview when she said that you really |
| 0:56.0 | never know what someone's going through. |
| 0:59.6 | And she shared her story with struggling with anxiety and how now she helps young people |
| 1:07.7 | overcome their own anxiety through her school of dance. So what are you going through these days? |
| 1:16.6 | And what are others around you going through? Maybe you know someone who's struggling. How could you share your compassion with them? Every day this week, the goal is to |
| 1:32.3 | feel compassion for those around you, especially those people who you come across that may cut you |
| 1:41.7 | off while you're driving or that may scowl at you as you pass them on the street. |
| 1:48.7 | These people are hurting inside. |
| 1:52.1 | So think of how you could react in a positive way instead of react in a negative way when someone's going through a difficult |
| 2:04.5 | time, even though they may be very difficult to deal with. This can help you gain so much |
| 2:15.1 | confidence in yourself. When you notice that you're able to tolerate and even feel |
| 2:20.9 | compassion for people who may even stress you out. If this is a theme that really speaks to you, |
| 2:32.7 | always know that you can go more in depth with any theme at any week |
| 2:38.4 | on the SIP and Om meditation app and you can try it for a full week free. You also gain access to a |
