Does it feel like there are far too many tabs open up there right now? Your mind hangs on to anything unfinished and keeps poking you about it, which is genuinely an attempt to help and is also exhausting. This 11-minute walking meditation lets each item surface, get acknowledged, and pass on by, one at a time, with nothing to solve. You come home with room to hear yourself think again.
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 an unfinished task keeps nudging at you, and what your mind is trying to do about it.
- A way to acknowledge each item as it surfaces without stopping to solve any of them.
- What changes once paper does the storing and your memory is off guard duty.
How to get the most out of this walk:
- Leave the phone in your pocket, so nothing new gets added to the pile while you walk.
- Take two minutes to write the whole list down as soon as you are back through the door.
