Some afternoons hand you one thing after another until you are short with everyone, including yourself. This 12-minute guided meditation gives that frustration a physical outlet, using a firm early pace and long exhales to move it out of your shoulders and jaw. You finish with the day still imperfect and your reaction to it much smaller.
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:
- Why frustration settles in the body first, and where you are most likely to feel yours.
- How a deliberately firm walking pace gives restless energy somewhere useful to go.
- A short way of naming what actually set you off, so it stops running in the background.
How to get the most out of this walk:
- Start faster than feels comfortable for the first two or three minutes, then let the pace fall off on its own.
- Walk somewhere you will not have to talk to anyone, so nothing pulls you back into the thing you are working off.
Step Into Calm is a daily walking meditation podcast where each episode is a short guided meditation to help you build mindfulness, ease stress, and find calm, clarity, and focus in just 10 to 15 minutes a day.
