Dear Friends, We’ve all heard about the benefits of meditation, from destressing to better sleep to improved health and healing. But traditional sitting meditation doesn’t necessarily work for everyone. How do we get the best results that meditation has to offer and not have to sit still? The answer is walking meditation. From wellness and meditation expert Amanda Lawford, DailyOM offers a unique year-long course of guided walking meditations. Let’s hear more about it from Amanda! DailyOM: What sets walking meditation apart from other meditation practices, and what unique benefits does it offer? Amanda: Walking meditation offers a beautiful synergy of movement, nature, and mindfulness to create a holistic experience for both the body and mind. As you engage in this practice, you embark on a journey of physical and mental well-being. The act of walking itself is a gentle form of exercise, allowing you to stretch muscles, increase circulation, and invigorate your body. When you practice outdoors, you soak up all the natural goodness around you — the fresh air, the sunshine, the sounds of birds chirping, and more. It's like treating yourself to a rejuvenating nature retreat amid your daily routine. Walking meditation also offers an opportunity to deepen your connection with your body. With each step, you become more attuned to the sensations and movements of your physical being. You become aware of how your feet touch the ground and how the breeze feels on your skin. This heightened awareness fosters a sense of presence and mindfulness, grounding you in the present moment and enriching your sensory experience. What's truly wonderful about walking meditation is its accessibility. You can seamlessly integrate it into your everyday life, whether you are commuting to work, enjoying a leisurely stroll in the park, or simply unwinding after a workout. It's a practice that meets you where you are, inviting you to infuse mindfulness into the ordinary moments of your day. DailyOM: Who would primarily benefit from your course? Amanda: Walking meditation offers benefits to a diverse range of people, including busy professionals, students, and seniors. For professionals with hectic schedules, it provides a chance to reset and find balance, while students can use it to clear their minds, enhance focus, and relieve stress during exams and deadlines. Seniors benefit from the gentle movement and mindfulness of walking meditation, maintaining physical mobility, balance, and mental clarity. People dealing with anxiety or depression can find relief and relaxation through this practice. For those seeking connection with nature, walking meditation offers a powerful tool for inner reflection and connection to the world around them. It also can be incredibly helpful for people managing symptoms of chronic conditions such as stress, pain, and fatigue. Stepping outside, basking in the warmth of the sun, or inhaling the crisp, fresh air can improve circulation, strengthen bones, boost heart health, and promote better sleep. Ultimately, walking meditation is accessible to anyone seeking a stronger connection to themselves and their environment, offering simplicity and profound benefits to daily life. DailyOM: Can you elaborate on the monthly themes? Amanda: Each monthly theme has been designed to encourage a deep exploration of different aspects of personal growth and renewal. These themes are like little guiding stars throughout the course. They shape what we focus on during our walks and journaling sessions, helping us dig deeper into different aspects of ourselves and the world around us. They are kind of like stepping stones that lead us along the path of self-discovery. By focusing on specific themes, practitioners are provided with opportunities to deepen their understanding of themselves and their relationship with the world around them. These themes are intricately interwoven throughout the course, reinforcing key ideas. It is like connecting the dots to a complete journey of personal growth and self-discovery, making the whole experience more meaningful and fulfilling. DailyOM: How do you envision people integrating the insights and practices into their daily lives beyond the walking meditations? Amanda: The course provides a consistent, guided practice to the participants, allowing them to incorporate walking meditation into their schedule at their pace. Consistently practicing walking meditation over the course of a year will not only benefit physical health; it also will foster a mindful practice which will become second nature. After practitioners engage with the monthly themes, they are encouraged, through journaling, to incorporate these insights into their daily routines. Whether it involves taking a mindful minute at work, practicing gratitude before bedtime, or being kinder to themselves throughout the day, the goal is to make awareness and self-discovery intrinsic aspects of life. DailyOM: Can you explain how the journal prompts enhance the overall experience? Amanda: Imagine the journal prompts as gentle guiding lights, leading you on a journey of self-discovery. Like breadcrumbs scattered along your path, they beckon you to delve deeper into your thoughts and emotions, providing a safe haven for exploration. With each prompt, you illuminate new facets of yourself and your life story, revealing hidden corners and overlooked treasures. Look at the prompts as companions on your quest for self-reflection and personal growth. As you engage with them regularly, you unlock doors to greater insight, awareness, and understanding, paving the way for deep reflection and transformation along your journey.
