00:00:18,681 --> 00:00:22,281
Speaker 1: If it's safe to do so, close your eyes or

Speaker 1: lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, relax

4
00:00:31,321 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 1: your jaw, relax your shoulders down, and bring your attention

5
00:00:41,921 --> 00:00:48,161

Speaker 1: by your back, your spine the strong framework of your values,

12
00:01:47,881 --> 00:01:56,681
Speaker 1: your boundaries, your truth. Your heart naturally opens with the
