1
00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:18,961
Speaker 1: Approche production. Good morning. I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your

2
00:00:19,041 --> 00:00:26,321
Speaker 1: Morning Mantra. Today's meditation explores the power of small victories

3
00:00:27,841 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: and how recognizing progress even in modest steps, can build

4
00:00:34,081 --> 00:00:44,881
Speaker 1: our confidence, motivation, and momentum. Your morning Mantra, I seek

5
00:00:45,561 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: small winds. Let's begin.

6
00:00:55,041 --> 00:00:58,681
Speaker 2: If it's safe to do so, close your eyes or

7
00:00:58,721 --> 00:01:07,521
Speaker 2: lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, relax

8
00:01:07,561 --> 00:01:14,801
Speaker 2: your jaw, relax your shoulders down, and bring your attention

9
00:01:15,961 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: to your breath, drawing your breath down.

10
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: Into your heart. Some of us celebrate the end when

11
00:01:34,801 --> 00:01:42,041
Speaker 1: ignoring the small winds along the way, which is a

12
00:01:42,121 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: missed opportunity to build confidence and self esteem. When we

13
00:01:52,881 --> 00:02:04,401
Speaker 1: recognize and reward each small step forward, completed tasks, moments

14
00:02:04,401 --> 00:02:15,321
Speaker 1: of effort, something powerful happens. We send signals to our

15
00:02:15,321 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: brain that we are capable. Our motivation muscle grows, our

16
00:02:30,041 --> 00:02:45,761
Speaker 1: confidence looms. Each tiny celebration encourages us to continue, keeping

17
00:02:45,881 --> 00:03:01,801
Speaker 1: us engaged and curious, growing and learning. Small winds create momentum.

18
00:03:04,401 --> 00:03:17,081
Speaker 1: Momentum builds belief, and belief strengthens our confidence, building our

19
00:03:17,121 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 1: self esteem. Step by step, small wind by small wind,

20
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:43,321
Speaker 1: we bloom today's mantra, I seek small winds. Repeat to yourself,

21
00:03:43,961 --> 00:03:51,281
Speaker 1: either out loud or in your mind. I seek small winds,

22
00:03:56,841 --> 00:04:03,361
Speaker 1: bringing your awareness back to your breath, breathing in and

23
00:04:03,481 --> 00:04:13,241
Speaker 1: out of your heart's face. May you be happy, May

24
00:04:13,241 --> 00:04:20,921
Speaker 1: you be well, May you be free from stress, worry, fear,

25
00:04:21,681 --> 00:04:27,521
Speaker 1: and anxiety. And may your whole life be truly blessed.

26
00:04:31,081 --> 00:04:37,001
Speaker 1: Bringing your awareness back to the space around you and

27
00:04:37,121 --> 00:04:46,201
Speaker 1: slowly opening your eyes to increase self awareness and growth.

28
00:04:47,521 --> 00:04:54,881
Speaker 1: I invite you to listen to this evening's reflection. You

29
00:04:54,921 --> 00:04:58,001
Speaker 1: can also deepen your practice with me on insight Timer
