Close your eyes and imagine the warm rays of the sun embracing you as you melt into this guided meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with the poem, "The Sun", by Mary Oliver.



"The Sun", by Mary Oliver.
Have you ever seenanythingin your lifemore wonderfulthan the way the sun,every evening,relaxed and easy,floats toward the horizonand into the clouds or the hills,or the rumpled sea,and is gone -and how it slides againout of the blackness,every morning,on the other side of the world,like a red flowerstreaming upward on its heavenly oils,say, on a morning in early summer,at its perfect imperial distance -and have you ever felt for anythingsuch wild love -do you think there is anywhere, in anylanguage,a word billowing enoughfor the pleasurethat it fills you,as the sunreaches out,as it warms youas you stand there,empty-handed -or have you tooturned from this world -or have you toogone crazyfor power,for things?
-Mary Oliver
