Day six: walking Meditation
Welcome to day six.
Today's meditation is a walking meditation, which can help us cultivate mindfulness and awareness while in motion. Walking meditation involves paying attention to the sensations of the body and the environment as we walk, allowing us to connect more deeply with the present moment and cultivate a sense of calm and clarity.
I love walking meditations and do them regularly - I aim for a couple a week. I’ve done this for some time now, years in fact. You may have even noticed elements yourself. I find that I get profound clarity and connection with who I am and how I am doing on these walks. Add in a little nature and it is heaven!
Your companion guide to Day six:
A journal prompt
We are back with the body today. Think about your body and how you've been feeling lately. You may even want to take a moment, close your eyes and think about the last few days, maybe weeks.
Write about a physical sensation in your body that you've been experiencing lately. What might this sensation be trying to tell you? How can you take care of your body in a more loving way?
An affirmation
Today, we are going with more gratitude, this time for our body.
“I am grateful for my body and everything that it does for me.”
Try saying this repeatedly, in front of a mirror. Say it as many times that you need to. Note how you feel when you start. Note how you feel when you finish. Write it on a post-it note and take it with you throughout the day. Say it anytime and as many times as you need to.
