1 00:00:05,921 --> 00:00:18,081 Speaker 1: Approche production. Good morning. I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your 2 00:00:18,201 --> 00:00:24,441 Speaker 1: Morning Mantra. Today's meditation invites you to slow down and 3 00:00:24,481 --> 00:00:31,481 Speaker 1: see this sacredness woven through daily life. Your morning Mantra, 4 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:42,481 Speaker 1: I find sacred in the simple. Every moment holds beauty. 5 00:00:44,361 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: Let's begin, If it's safe to do so, close your 6 00:00:49,241 --> 00:00:57,161 Speaker 1: eyes or lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, 7 00:00:59,041 --> 00:01:06,241 Speaker 1: relax your jaw, relax your shoulders down and bring your 8 00:01:06,281 --> 00:01:17,321 Speaker 1: attention to your breath. Bringing your awareness to your senses, 9 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:30,041 Speaker 1: the sounds around you, the light, the rhythm of your breath. 10 00:01:35,401 --> 00:01:42,601 Speaker 1: Many of us live where others dream to visit. We 11 00:01:42,721 --> 00:01:51,121 Speaker 1: rush through mornings, meals, and moments, but when we pause, 12 00:01:52,561 --> 00:01:59,841 Speaker 1: even the smallest act can become sacred. When cooking, think 13 00:01:59,841 --> 00:02:04,561 Speaker 1: of who will eat the meal, and prepare it with 14 00:02:04,681 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: loving care, especially if the meal is just for you. 15 00:02:13,881 --> 00:02:25,201 Speaker 1: This is devotion, This is self love. When driving, look 16 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:30,761 Speaker 1: around at the views and the vistas that others dream 17 00:02:30,881 --> 00:02:38,721 Speaker 1: of living around. When brushing your teeth, do so mindfully, 18 00:02:40,561 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: cleaning the whole surface area gently and with love. Taking 19 00:02:48,761 --> 00:02:57,441 Speaker 1: the full two minutes. Presence turns the mundane into the meaningful. 20 00:03:00,721 --> 00:03:10,081 Speaker 1: Gratitude makes each breath a prayer. Today's mantra, I find 21 00:03:10,201 --> 00:03:19,601 Speaker 1: sacred in the simple. Every moment holds beauty. Repeat to yourself, 22 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: either out loud or in your mind. I find sacred 23 00:03:25,201 --> 00:03:37,601 Speaker 1: in the simple. Every moment holds beauty. Bringing your awareness 24 00:03:37,921 --> 00:03:43,961 Speaker 1: back to your breath, breathing in and out of your 25 00:03:44,001 --> 00:03:53,441 Speaker 1: heart space. May you be happy, May you be well, 26 00:03:56,521 --> 00:04:04,881 Speaker 1: May you be free from stress, worry, fear, and anxiety, 27 00:04:04,561 --> 00:04:11,761 Speaker 1: and your whole life be truly blessed. Bringing your awareness 28 00:04:11,801 --> 00:04:18,161 Speaker 1: back to the space around you and slowly opening your 29 00:04:18,161 --> 00:04:27,761 Speaker 1: eyes to increase self awareness and growth.
