Summary

This meditation aims to cultivate a deep sense of presence and grounding, aligning with the core message of Four Thousand Weeks to live fully in the moment.

Meditation:

Focus your attention on your root chakra, visualizing it as a glowing red stone. Imagine roots extending from this stone, anchoring you deeply into the earth.

Repeat the affirmation, "I give myself permission to slow down." With each inhale, imagine yourself drawing in the energy of the present moment. With each exhale, release any thoughts about the past or future.

Continue to breathe deeply, feeling the weight of your body on the ground. Let go of any tension or stress. Allow yourself to be completely absorbed by the present experience.

WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S GUIDED MEDITATION SERIES

This meditation series invites you to explore the concept of time as a finite resource. Drawing inspiration from Oliver Burkeman's "Four Thousand Weeks," you'll delve into the art of living fully within your allotted time.

0:00.0	Welcome to episode 3,161 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and I'm so honored
0:11.5	as I always am to welcome you to today's guided meditation.
0:18.0	I always start with some insight and the insight is focused on the theme we explore for a full week.
0:26.8	So every week there's a different theme and most of these themes are selected by you.
0:35.0	I get a lot of theme requests that I welcome.
0:39.0	In fact, I'm welcoming theme requests
0:42.0	for the upcoming months, so you can reach out to me on my sip and
0:46.4	ome Instagram there and let me know what theme you would love for me to create a series about.
0:55.0	Well, in this week's series, I selected the theme for you.
1:00.1	It's because I'm reading a thought-provoking book by Oliver Berkman called 4,000 weeks.
1:08.6	And the 4,000 represents the number of weeks you would live if you lived to be 80 years old.
1:18.0	Now I know some of you have already surpassed that and some of us may not reach that 80 week point and isn't
1:27.9	it strange to think about that it even sounds a little morbid but the reality is that it's not really how long
1:38.9	you live it's more about how you live, the quality of your life.
1:46.0	And there is the concept that we've been exploring all week long called Finitude.
1:52.0	And it's about accepting the finite nature of time and when you
1:58.2	begin to accept this you begin to become more present with your life.
2:07.0	And that's what meditation is all about becoming really present, becoming very mindful of how you're living your life,
2:17.0	how you're spending your time in the moment.
2:22.0	And when you do this you naturally begin to align with your values and
2:31.4	when you align with your values, then you begin to let go of those qualities,
