1 00:00:05,921 --> 00:00:07,281 Speaker 1: Approach production. 2 00:00:15,121 --> 00:00:19,001 Speaker 2: Good morning, I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your morning Mantra. 3 00:00:20,241 --> 00:00:24,201 Speaker 2: Today's meditation is an invitation to clear the space around you, 4 00:00:25,441 --> 00:00:29,441 Speaker 2: because when our surroundings are calm, our minds become clear. 5 00:00:31,481 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 2: Your morning mantra, I create calm within by clearing the 6 00:00:36,881 --> 00:00:37,961 Speaker 2: space around me. 7 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: Let's begin, if it's safe to do so. Close your 8 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:55,921 Speaker 1: eyes or lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, Relax your ears, 9 00:00:57,881 --> 00:01:05,001 Speaker 1: relax your jaw, relax your shoulders down, and bring your 10 00:01:05,161 --> 00:01:07,401 Speaker 1: attention to your breath. 11 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:21,721 Speaker 2: Bringing your attention to the space between your eyebrows. Observe 12 00:01:21,881 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 2: thoughts as they arise, and watch as they disappear without attachment. 13 00:01:37,041 --> 00:01:40,961 Speaker 2: With your eyes still closed, bring to mind the space 14 00:01:41,041 --> 00:01:49,561 Speaker 2: that you sit in right now, the sounds, the smells, 15 00:01:51,281 --> 00:02:00,521 Speaker 2: the colors, and still practicing non attachment. While still practicing 16 00:02:00,601 --> 00:02:07,881 Speaker 2: non attachment, bring to mind what is dirty, what is broken, 17 00:02:10,801 --> 00:02:19,401 Speaker 2: what feels overwhelming. Clutter around us causes clutter within us. 18 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:30,561 Speaker 2: When our spaces are crowded, noisy, or messy, our minds 19 00:02:30,721 --> 00:02:43,361 Speaker 2: become busy, full of distraction, tension, and unfinished thoughts. When 20 00:02:43,401 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 2: we are in clean spaces that are tidy and free, 21 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 2: we can sense that through all of our senses visually 22 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:11,361 Speaker 2: through sound, smell, feel, and taste. A clear space allows presence, 23 00:03:14,361 --> 00:03:21,481 Speaker 2: It invites creativity. It opens the door for peace to enter. 24 00:03:24,401 --> 00:03:32,041 Speaker 2: Today is an invitation to tidy, clean or fix. Choose 25 00:03:32,081 --> 00:03:38,361 Speaker 2: an area or set a timer. Know that by committing 26 00:03:38,921 --> 00:03:43,801 Speaker 2: to doing this, we are not only affecting our environment, 27 00:03:46,241 --> 00:03:53,921 Speaker 2: we are creating room for stillness and clarity inside of ourselves. 28 00:03:56,761 --> 00:04:01,561 Speaker 2: Today's mantra, I create calm within by clearing the space 29 00:04:01,641 --> 00:04:07,361 Speaker 2: around me. Repeat to yourself, either out loud or in 30 00:04:07,441 --> 00:04:12,721 Speaker 2: your mind.
