1
00:00:05,921 --> 00:00:07,281
Speaker 1: Approche production.

2
00:00:15,161 --> 00:00:18,961
Speaker 2: Good morning. I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your Morning Mantra.

3
00:00:20,681 --> 00:00:24,281
Speaker 2: We often meet people in passing a moment here, a

4
00:00:24,361 --> 00:00:28,961
Speaker 2: conversation there, without truly knowing what their lives hold behind

5
00:00:28,961 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 2: closed doors. Today's meditation explores the power of getting to

6
00:00:34,561 --> 00:00:42,921
Speaker 2: know others better. Your morning mantra I open with a

7
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:51,681
Speaker 2: caring and genuine curiosity. Let's begin.

8
00:00:53,641 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: If it's safe to do so, close your eyes or

9
00:00:57,321 --> 00:01:06,121
Speaker 1: lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, relax

10
00:01:06,161 --> 00:01:13,401
Speaker 1: your jaw, relax your shoulders down, and bring your attention

11
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:24,361
Speaker 1: to your breath, drawing your breath down into your heart space.

12
00:01:27,081 --> 00:01:34,401
Speaker 2: Every person we meet carries a story we can't see,

13
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:45,281
Speaker 2: a quiet struggle, a hidden grief, a tender hope, a

14
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:56,921
Speaker 2: private battle behind the customary I'm fine, maybe heartbreak, worry, confusion,

15
00:01:57,361 --> 00:02:06,281
Speaker 2: or pain. Asking gentle questions can build bridges, a way

16
00:02:06,361 --> 00:02:12,361
Speaker 2: of saying, I want to hear more of your story.

17
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:18,521
Speaker 2: When we choose to be more curious, we become more understanding,

18
00:02:21,481 --> 00:02:29,881
Speaker 2: more tolerant of other people's situations, spreading goodwill and kindness

19
00:02:32,361 --> 00:02:39,081
Speaker 2: in a world that can feel cold and transactional. Leading

20
00:02:39,121 --> 00:02:48,121
Speaker 2: with genuine curiosity opens our minds and our hearts. It

21
00:02:48,201 --> 00:02:55,401
Speaker 2: invites acceptance and warmth into our days, a spark of

22
00:02:55,481 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: recognition of being heard and understood, a shared moment of understanding.

23
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:15,601
Speaker 2: Curiosity is powerful. It can change someone's day, It can

24
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:23,441
Speaker 2: change us. Today's mantra, I open with a caring and

25
00:03:23,561 --> 00:03:29,761
Speaker 2: genuine curiosity. Repeat to yourself, either out loud or in

26
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:38,601
Speaker 2: your mind. I open with a caring and genuine curiosity,

27
00:03:41,001 --> 00:03:47,561
Speaker 2: bringing your awareness back to your breath, breathing in and

28
00:03:47,641 --> 00:03:57,401
Speaker 2: out of your heart space. May you be happy, May

29
00:03:57,441 --> 00:04:05,001
Speaker 2: you be well, May you be free from stress, worry, fear,

30
00:04:05,881 --> 00:04:10,481
Speaker 2: and anxiety, and may your whole.

31
00:04:10,201 --> 00:04:11,681
Speaker 1: Life be truly blessed.

32
00:04:15,241 --> 00:04:21,201
Speaker 2: Bringing your awareness back to the space around you and

33
00:04:21,281 --> 00:04:30,361
Speaker 2: slowly opening your eyes to increase self awareness and growth.

34
00:04:31,721 --> 00:04:39,041
Speaker 2: I invite you to listen to this evening's reflection. You

35
00:04:39,081 --> 00:04:42,201
