0:00.0	Welcome to episode 3,163 of the Daily Meditation Podcast. I'm Mary Meckley and I'm so honored to
0:10.9	introduce a brand new meditation series to you. In today's episode you're
0:18.6	going to be introduced to this seven-day meditation series that is designed to help you navigate the demands of
0:30.9	modern life and the theme for this series is meditation for modern living a seven day plan. What I did is I selected this series for you just as I selected last
0:49.5	week's series 4,000 weeks for you and I wanted to create a series that was a follow-up
0:59.4	series to last weeks so the theme 4,000 weeks from last week follows along with the book by

1:20.8	live to be 80 years old you would have lived to be 80 years old you would have lived 4,000 weeks.
1:28.1	So when I thought about how you go about living your best life ever as you live your 4,000 weeks, some of us
1:39.0	won't live to see 4,000 weeks.

1:49.0	listening who have listened to years of this meditation podcast and you are well beyond the 40 weeks.
1:58.9	So this is going to be a week where you can implement a very specific plan that's

2:44.0	So I selected last week's theme for you as well as this week's theme
