WELCOME TO THIS WEEK'S SERIES:
THE LIGHT YOU LEAVE BEHIND: CREATING A LEGACY
Welcome to a powerful journey beyond the present moment. In this series, you're going to explore the profound and liberating concept of leaving a legacy—not just in the things you do, but in the person you are. Each meditation is a guide to help you live a more intentional life, so that your kindness, courage, and unique spirit will create a positive ripple effect for generations to come. Your life is a masterpiece, and it's time to realize the beautiful impact you are already making. It's time to build your living monument.
This series is a replay from a series I recorded a few years ago. I hope you enjoy a 7-day journey to share the best parts of you for generations to come.
This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Light You Leave Behind," episodes 2303-2309.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to episode 2,9006 of your daily guided meditation. I welcome you to day four. We continue along with our Quest meditation series and you are leaving a legacy this week. |
| 0:23.3 | I'm so curious as to what kind of legacy you have selected for yourself. |
| 0:30.3 | And remember, a legacy does not have to be something big or profound. |
| 0:37.3 | Leaving a legacy can be as simple as improving some aspect of your life |
| 0:44.2 | or the lives of others. When I think of some of the important people in my own life who have |
| 0:52.5 | passed on and the legacy they left, I think of my |

| 1:43.4 | loved crafts and of course their garden and my grandfather |
| 1:48.5 | built their very first home by hand without any power tools. Now many of your grandparents |

| 2:09.1 | of neighbors. |
| 2:11.6 | So this is a legacy that they left and I don't think they realized they were leaving a legacy. They |
| 2:18.7 | were simply living their lives the best way they could and also enriching and beautifying |
| 2:26.8 | their lives and that is the legacy that they imparted to my whole family. So when I think of a legacy that I believe I may be leaving, |
| 2:39.0 | I would say that it's similar because I enjoy creating special spaces in my home |
| 2:48.0 | that my family and I enjoy. And I also always have some kind of herb garden or vegetable garden, |
| 2:56.7 | and I grow flowers and lots of different things. |
| 3:00.9 | And so their legacy has spilled over into my life, |
