If the word meditation has ever made you roll your eyes, this one is for you. This 10-minute walking meditation asks for no cushion, no silence, and no empty mind, just your breath and your steps falling into a rhythm together, counted out until it settles on its own. You finish having meditated, whether it felt like it or not.
Safety note: Keep your eyes open and stay aware of your surroundings. Your safety always comes first. Follow the audio only as far as it's safe to do so.
What you'll explore:
- A simple count, three steps in and three steps out, and how to find the number that fits you.
- Why the two things you are already doing are enough to build a practice on.
- What to do when your attention wanders off, which it will.
How to get the most out of this walk:
- Pick a route you know well so you can give the rhythm most of your attention.
- Try it again on an ordinary walk, to the car or up the stairs, and see if the rhythm comes back.
