00:00:05,881 --> 00:00:17,041
Speaker 1: Approach production. Good morning. I'm Jennifer Cray, host of your

2
00:00:17,081 --> 00:00:22,681
Speaker 1: morning mantra. In a world that glorifies busy, it can

3
00:00:22,721 --> 00:00:29,481
Speaker 1: feel radical to pause. Today's meditation helps us reconnect with

4
00:00:29,601 --> 00:00:37,881
Speaker 1: the quiet power of stillness. Your mourning mantra, there is

5
00:00:37,961 --> 00:00:47,361
Speaker 1: strength in stillness. Let's begin, if it's safe to do so.

6
00:00:47,441 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: Close your eyes or lower your gaze. Relax your eyes,

7
00:00:54,801 --> 00:01:02,601
Speaker 1: relax your ears, relax your jaw, relax your shoulders down,

8
00:01:04,441 --> 00:01:11,161
Speaker 1: and bring your attension to your breath, breathing in and

9
00:01:11,241 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: out from your nose. Bring your attention to the subtle

10
00:01:18,881 --> 00:01:32,761
Speaker 1: stillness between breaths. This is pure stillness, a memory from

11
00:01:32,801 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: the womb, pure presence. The pause in the breath is

12
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:57,841
Speaker 1: where clarity rises, where peace gathers. There's strength here in

13
00:01:57,881 --> 00:02:06,481
Speaker 1: the pause, the power of insight, the power of thought,

14
00:02:09,241 --> 00:02:16,761
Speaker 1: an opportunity to choose what happens next. Our breath is

15
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:24,041
Speaker 1: our anchor, and the space between our breath our inner

16
00:02:24,081 --> 00:02:34,561
Speaker 1: power to connect to our inner peace. Today's mantra, there

17
00:02:34,601 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: is strength and stillness. Repeat to yourself, either out loud

18
00:02:43,881 --> 00:02:53,841
Speaker 1: or in your mind. There is strength and stillness. Bringing

19
00:02:53,841 --> 00:02:58,281
Speaker 1: your awareness to your breath and back to the space

20
00:02:58,321 --> 00:03:05,681
Speaker 1: around you slowly open your eyes to increase self awareness

21
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,721
Speaker 1: and growth. I invite you to listen to this evening's reflection.

22
00:03:11,321 --> 00:03:14,401
Speaker 1: You can also deepen your practice with me on Inside Timer.
