Mindfulness Walking
The focus of this exercise is to engage the mind fully in an action as simple as walking and not to take for granted such simple abilities as being able to walk.
1. Relax and begin to walk.
2. Draw your attention to the action of walking.
3. Be aware of how are you are walking and consciously engage with this act.
4. The pace of the walking can vary, but during the exercise keep your mind focused on the action of walking.
To finish the chi gung/tai chi session – It is nice to finish up with a relaxing walk either around the room or in the open air. The exercise of mindfulness walking is adapted from Jon Zabat Zinn who has lots of reference material on web. I really hope you enjoyed practice.
