This is episode 1763. Welcome to your daily guided meditation. I'm honored. You are here

midweek of our series to cleanse. And I want to ask you, have you given yourself three

peaceful moments each day? And if you haven't, it's never too late to start. Remember that

these challenges are ways for you to get used to doing a certain habit or ritual that will

enhance your experience as you go through this series. The daily challenges are also

challenges you can continue to do even after the series is completed. And I hope that you

do continue with these challenges. Why not give yourself a peaceful moment right now? At this

very moment, focus on something that inspires peace within you.

Now carry this peaceful moment with you as you do today's meditation. The

technique for you to do as you meditate today is a mudra. And the mudra is a special mudra that

will help to improve your breath. Mudras are simple ways you position your hands that activate

a corresponding region of your brain. And the mudra for your cleanse series is a mudra

for consolation and to feel comforted. As you let go of things that no longer support you

as you cleanse, you will find that there can be a little power vacuum there as you leave space

for something new in your life. When you cleanse, you open yourself up to something new. It's a great

idea to have a focus on what you want as your next step in your cleanse. And to know what you want,

it's important to have that pure clarity, not the kind of action where you feel frustrated or

you're just moving through your day on automatic without really considering what you're doing.

It can feel as though your life has no meaning. And so this mudra I'll share with you is called

the prayer mudra. And it is because you hold your hands as if you're in prayer. There is another

mudra that if you actually followed last week's series, we did the atmanjali mudra and that mudra

you hold your hands pressed together with the fingers and thumbs upward as if in prayer.
