| 0:04.0 | Welcome to your daily meditation. |
| 0:08.0 | I honor you for being right where you are as you get ready to be guided in a meditation. |
| 0:17.0 | So whether you are seated, getting ready to meditate, you're lying down, maybe getting ready to go to sleep, or if you're walking around, it doesn't matter. It's all good. Honor where you are on this journey. When you attune yourself to anything having to do with slowing down your lifestyle, becoming more connected with your true inner nature, it's all beautiful. |
| 0:48.2 | And I'm honored to be on this journey with you. |
| 0:52.0 | I'm Mary Meckley and I'm your meditation guide. So today's |
| 0:58.0 | meditation is a wonderful series that I'm excited to share with you because we're launching |

| 1:14.6 | Well, it's a little bit different from what I normally share, |

| 2:08.6 | She sees so many other people out there looking like they're at ease, |
| 2:13.6 | and she can see how this benefits them. And she wonders if meditation can help with this and |
| 2:21.7 | absolutely it can and so throughout this series you're going to be guided in meditations |
| 2:29.2 | using meditation techniques to help you with different socially difficult situations. |
| 2:37.0 | So this is going to be a fun series and I will say that if you have any |
