| 0:06.0 | I'm Mary Meckley and I welcome you |
| 0:09.0 | as you continue along with our series we're exploring this week it's all about how to |
| 0:17.6 | survive uncertainty. In each episode you are discovering a different meditation technique to help you manage the |
| 0:29.8 | ups and downs, the roller coaster ride of our current times. In today's episode you are |
| 0:38.6 | going to discover how to rewire how you respond to stress. |
| 0:47.2 | And I'll be sharing some insight |
| 0:50.2 | from Dr. Austin Perlmutter, who wrote the five strategies for managing |

| 2:08.6 | that when you meditate, |
| 2:11.1 | there's a pause before a reaction. So during that pause, meditators determine how they will |
| 2:19.8 | respond to stress. And so it's usually in a much better way if you can just pause |
| 2:25.7 | before you react you'll usually react in a much calmer way. So meditation helps to rewire your brain. |
