Nowhere Else You Need To Be
Before you start walking, take a moment and just breathe. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, your weight balanced evenly between them. Fill your lungs with air, then let it out slowly. And again. You are here, in this moment, and for the next few minutes there’s nowhere else you need to be. This time is for you. Now, let’s get moving.

Who Are Those People?
I walk for me. ~ To breathe ~ To meditate ~ To escape. ~ Just joking, I walk to get to work, the grocery store, the thrift store, the book store, the library, the coffee shop, the farmers market. Sometimes if I am feeling extra lazy, I walk to the bus stop and take that instead. However, despite how large the burden may seem in the moment, I always feel accomplished, refreshed, and more present when I arrive at my final destination when I walk.

Every breath you take, every step you make.
Thank you for joining this walking meditation. Many people think you should stay still while meditating, but it is not necessarily true. There is no right or wrong way to meditate because meditation is not about reaching the destination. It is a journey finding happiness on every step you take.

The Walk To Remember
The Purpose of meditation is to empty our mind to make space for the awareness of Now. Studies have shown that 30 minutes of moderate exercise such as walking or running can significantly improve one’s state of mind. The burdens of everyday life can become overwhelming at times, so let’s take a walk today to bring you back to a state of consciousness that will be relieving and relaxing.

Mind your Mind
Remember that walking meditation is much like life. It’s literally one step at a time, step by step, small incremental movements forward that all coalesce into one journey. At the beginning, one notices how far he must go, but in the end, one notices how far he’s come. The key is mindfulness, or what I like to call “minding the mind.” A great means of doing this is to mind your breath. Start by taking three deep breaths, after taking three deep breaths, allow the air to escape through the nose and fall into a natural rhythm. As in life, breath is essential, so first, breathe in, deeply. Breathe in all that life is, all that is bothering you, all that is in your mind and then let it go by breathing out. Breathe out all that you’re worried about, any thoughts floating around in your mind or anxious energy that might need to be expelled. Next, allow your forehead to release those wrinkles, let those shoulders drop and unclench your jaw. Let go of the tension, let it all go until you are completely empty; this emptiness is key, because again, much like in life, a cup must be emptied before it can be filled. So, empty your cup. The first step is complete.

Meditation with eyes OPEN?
Suppose you're walking down the road after an exhausting day of work. Suppose you're on your way home and you remember something, unfinished work; negative news; pessimistic thought, etc. Suppose you're walking down the street with your group, and they are talking among themselves and you feel left out and awkward. What is common in all these scenarios? You losing your peace!

Breathing The Heavy Negativity Out
Have you ever stopped to think about what you are doing when you are outside walking? If you stop to really think about it then there will be a time when you realize how relaxed you have become after a long walk. There are different kinds of meditation in the world today that not everybody knows about. I would like to walk through a meditation discussion with you. I know, you are looking at the words and wondering how is it possible to walk while doing meditation? I am about to tell you how this works while you are walking about.
