| 0:00.0 | This is episode 1,567. Welcome to the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Meckley, and I honor you for |
| 0:11.9 | showing up for yourself as you get ready to meditate. In today's episode, you are going to discover a meditation technique to help you release |
| 0:26.6 | tension. And this is a technique you can do whether you're seated on your meditation cushion or |
| 0:34.3 | in your chair or whether you're right in the middle of a stressful moment during your day. |
| 0:42.0 | I'll be sharing with you a mudra. |
| 0:45.3 | Mudras are often referred to as yoga in your hands. |
| 0:51.5 | We have all kinds of nerves in our fingertips and our hands. |
| 0:56.0 | And when you position your hands in a particular way, |

| 1:47.5 | So I want to share with you a bit about fatigue before I guide you in the meditation technique. |
| 1:57.8 | I also want to mention that you might want to take a look at how to position your |
| 2:04.0 | hands in this mudra, although I'll guide you through it. It's not difficult. It's very simple, |
| 2:10.5 | but many of you like to see a photo of the mudra. So I put up a photo of my hands or someone's hands in this mudra on my Facebook page. |
| 2:25.2 | It's the Sip and Om Facebook page. |
