The rules

Walking meditation is like that “cool kid” but now in meditation. There aren’t any strict rules, unlike traditional meditation, which btw makes some of us want to snooze 💤.

Here are the do’s:

• Be observant of your environment while walking, notice the air you’re breathing, spot any cool birds, notice a kid riding a bike and feel the euphoria, notice someone beeping the horn too loudly and curse them a little (positively).
• Try to be present as your feet shuffle.
• No rules, You can totally grab a bite as you go, unlike some other people’s, “traditional meditation.”
• Enjoy the walk.

The how…

• Pick a time that you would actually enjoy walking or be totally random with it.
• Pick your spot, whether it’s a local park, your backyard, a supermarket aisle, or a city sidewalk.
• Limit the distractions, no scrolling while meditating, and the music must also go.
• Breathe and walk with intention, Feel the weight of your feet, the shuffling, the air.
• Let your thoughts flow, Luckily for you, you don’t have to push your thoughts aside just observe them.

Are you up for some walking meditation? Because I sure as hell am.
