What is mindful walking meditation?

Walking meditation is just like it sounds!  It’s basically just walking, while meditating!  Don’t worry– I’m going to give you more info than just the obvious. 😉

Walking meditation is the act of staying present and grounded while you’re moving.  During walking meditation we use the experience of walking as our anchor (similar to the way you often use the breath as your focus in seated meditation).  Meditation is all about observing the present moment in a non-judgmental way.  Walking meditation is no different– it just has a different focus!

So that’s it!  Pretty simple, right?  If you need a little more, you can check out this site here for a detailed overview of the walking meditation practice.

Can you really meditate while walking?

Yes, absolutely!  If you couldn’t, this post wouldn’t even exist!  Remember, meditation is simply the act of being present.  You can be present and mindful, while doing literally any activity!  You can brush your teeth mindfully, do the dishes mindfully, and yes– you can walk mindfully too.  It doesn’t matter what you’re doing.  All that matters is where your focus is.

Walking Meditation Instructions

So now you know what walking meditation is and how it can help you– I’ll bet you’re ready to learn how to do it, right?  Walking meditation is a super simple, but effective practice.  Basically, all you need to do is focus your attention on the movements associated with walking, such as your foot lifting off the ground, your weight shifting from one foot to the other, and the feel of the ground underneath your feet.

Don’t worry if that makes no sense whatsoever to you right now.  You’ll get all the walking meditation instructions you need in the 10 Minute Guided Walking Meditation audio in the next section.
