00:00:05,921 --> 00:00:14,521
Speaker 1: Approache production. Good morning. I'm Jennifer Craig, host of your

2
00:00:14,641 --> 00:00:25,401
Speaker 1: morning Mantra. Today's meditation is about accepting pain. Let's begin

3
00:00:27,761 --> 00:00:34,681
Speaker 1: your mourning mantra. I can be with the grip of pain,

4
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,681
Speaker 1: if it's safe to do so, close your eyes or

5
00:00:42,721 --> 00:00:54,041
Speaker 1: lower your gaze. Relax your eyes, relax your ears, relax

6
00:00:54,121 --> 00:01:04,281
Speaker 1: your job, relax your shoulders down, and bring your attention

7
00:01:05,161 --> 00:01:15,601
Speaker 1: to your breath, drawing your breath down into your belly.

8
00:01:22,961 --> 00:01:32,041
Speaker 1: Bringing your attention to any pain in the body with

9
00:01:32,161 --> 00:01:40,641
Speaker 1: the intention of observing it, to get an understanding of it,

10
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:55,081
Speaker 1: where it is, how big or small it is, the

11
00:01:55,201 --> 00:02:06,521
Speaker 1: space it takes off, if and where it refers. To

12
00:02:14,121 --> 00:02:23,241
Speaker 1: understand that it is telling you something meaningful, sending you

13
00:02:23,321 --> 00:02:34,041
Speaker 1: a message. Thank your body for bringing this to your attention.

14
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: Accept the pain for what it is, letting go of

15
00:02:47,881 --> 00:03:01,561
Speaker 1: the fight, the guarding, of the wishing it away, and

16
00:03:01,761 --> 00:03:14,241
Speaker 1: just allow it to be as an is. Breathe and accept,

17
00:03:20,201 --> 00:03:34,281
Speaker 1: Breathe and understand, accepting that if it is like this forever,

18
00:03:35,921 --> 00:03:41,681
Speaker 1: that it would be okay, that you would be okay

19
00:03:45,881 --> 00:03:56,121
Speaker 1: when you come to your breath. Today's mantra I can

20
00:03:56,201 --> 00:04:02,801
Speaker 1: be with a grip of pain. Repeat to yourself, either

21
00:04:02,881 --> 00:04:07,281
Speaker 1: out loud or in your mind, and I can be

22
00:04:08,361 --> 00:04:14,201
Speaker 1: with a grip of pain. Follow us on Instagram at
