0:01Let's get started by taking a moment just to be thankful for all the blessings in life.
0:16And when you're ready, let your eyes close like the sun sets.
0:30Take a moment to consider this verse in prayer.
0:37"Keep on seeking and you will find.
0:43Keep on knocking and the door will be opened to you." And again, "Keep on seeking and you will find.
1:04Keep on knocking and the door will be opened to you." Now, take some nice deep breaths, in through the nose and out through the mouth.
1:56Just watching the breath.
2:06Watching the rise and the fall of the chest.
2:28Listening to the sounds of your breath.
2:50Notice your feelings and emotions.
3:01Just taking note of them and then coming back to the feeling of the breath.
3:42And now bringing your attention to the heart.
3:57Let your awareness settle onto the heartbeat.
4:23Allow your awareness to fall and move inward, finding that place where you feel loved.
5:00Feel that sense of natural peace that can only be found in God's presence.
5:27Bring your awareness to the space around the body.
5:40Notice any sensations on the skin.
5:52Feel the clothes on the skin.
5:59Feel the temperature of the room.
6:20Listen to the sounds in the room, with a nice easy focus.
6:50Begin to gently notice the breath.
7:04Notice the rise and the fall of the breath.
7:16The air moving in and the air moving out.
7:27Without even having to think about it, it just happens.
7:35The breath breathes itself.
7:56Follow the breath in through the nostrils and into the chest and the abdomen.
8:09Follow the breath back out.
8:26Feel the inhale and relax.
8:33Allow the exhale and let go.
8:58This is a safe place.
9:02There's no need to rush.
9:07God is watching over you, and He loves you.
9:16There's no goal.
9:20There's no destination.
9:46Allow your awareness to rest with the presence of God.
10:07Take this verse with you.
10:11Keep on seeking, and you will find.
10:17Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.
10:33God, I know You're always with me.
10:39Thank You for all of Your blessings.
10:44Help me to relax and let go in Your presence.
10:51I trust Your plan for my life.
