1 00:00:05,921 --> 00:00:17,921 Speaker 1: Approache production. Good morning. I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your 2 00:00:17,961 --> 00:00:22,961 Speaker 1: morning Mantra. Today's meditation is an invitation to trust the 3 00:00:23,041 --> 00:00:27,681 Speaker 1: unfolding of our lives, to lean into the process, even 4 00:00:27,681 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: when the outcome isn't clear. Your morning mantra, I trust 5 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:46,241 Speaker 1: the process of my life. Let's begin, if it's safe 6 00:00:46,281 --> 00:00:46,761 Speaker 1: to do so. 7 00:00:47,441 --> 00:00:53,081 Speaker 2: Close your eyes or lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, 8 00:00:54,761 --> 00:01:02,721 Speaker 2: Relax your ears, relax your jaw, relax your shoulders. 9 00:01:02,281 --> 00:01:14,041 Speaker 1: Down and bring your tension to your breath. Drawing your 10 00:01:14,041 --> 00:01:23,041 Speaker 1: breath down into the belly, noticing the rise, and the 11 00:01:23,081 --> 00:01:35,721 Speaker 1: full trust is built breath by breath. Life doesn't always 12 00:01:35,801 --> 00:01:46,721 Speaker 1: move in straight lines. Sometimes we want quick answers immediate results, 13 00:01:49,281 --> 00:01:56,801 Speaker 1: but growth takes time and trust is patience in action. 14 00:02:00,881 --> 00:02:07,001 Speaker 1: Think of a seed. It holds a whole tree within it, 15 00:02:09,241 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: as well as the future trees, but it needs the seasons, 16 00:02:16,641 --> 00:02:26,201 Speaker 1: the soil, and the rains. Its unfolding and growth relies 17 00:02:27,001 --> 00:02:34,361 Speaker 1: on its inner knowledge and also the contributions of the environment. 18 00:02:39,881 --> 00:02:49,361 Speaker 1: So too, within us, each challenge is a step in 19 00:02:49,441 --> 00:03:03,361 Speaker 1: our becoming. In each delay, hidden wisdom. Today's mantra, I 20 00:03:03,481 --> 00:03:10,361 Speaker 1: trust the process of my life. Repeat to yourself either 21 00:03:10,441 --> 00:03:16,201 Speaker 1: out loud or in your mind. I trust the process 22 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:25,041 Speaker 1: of my life, bringing your awareness back to your breath, 23 00:03:28,281 --> 00:03:35,881 Speaker 1: breathing in and out of your heart space. May you 24 00:03:35,961 --> 00:03:43,561 Speaker 1: be happy, may you be well, May you be free 25 00:03:43,961 --> 00:03:51,521 Speaker 1: from stress, worry, fear, and anxiety, and may your whole 26 00:03:51,601 --> 00:03:58,801 Speaker 1: life be truly blessed. Bringing your awareness back to the 27 00:03:58,841 --> 00:04:10,001 Speaker 1: space around you and slowly opening your eyes to increase 28 00:04:10,081 --> 00:04:15,481 Speaker 1: self awareness and growth, I invite you to listen to 29 00:04:15,521 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: this evening's reflection.
