Each & everyday we take small or giant steps to get to a destination. Some might enjoy walks through the park or just a quiet stroll down the street. With our cellphones & digital gadgets in hand & on full blast, it's easy to miss helpful meditation within the moment. Walking is a great way to do moving meditation.
First clear your mind of all thoughts. If this is difficult try focusing on one thing ex: birds singing, a candle flicker, the sun etc. Next take steady & even deep cleansing breathes to calm and sooth the mind & body. Stay with the breath. Do not let it go. Your breathing pattern can also be a point of focus. As you inhale fill the abdomen with oxygen & as you exhale contract the adbomen by breathing all of the air out. Allow yourself to be fully present in the moment. Finally move rhythemically with your steps. Allow your footsteps to be syncopated & balanced. Enjoy this moment & refresh your being!
