Walk in Nature and connect with a sense of wonder

When we do walking meditation, we are using the physical, mental, and emotional experiences of walking to develop greater awareness. Walk slowly and let your attention rest on all the sensations in your body,  noting those inside your body and in its contact with the environment. When you step, feel the foot coming into contact with the ground and rising from it, and be aware of the rest of your body as you move. Contact with the earth “grounds” your attention in the present moment. From time to time stop and simply breathe. As you walk,  quietly say “thanks”  for the things in nature you notice –  for the birds, the sky,  the wild flowers and the trees.
