Mindful Walking has many benefits. Not only there are physical benefits of walking in itself, but mindful Walking can reduce blood pressure and heart rate, create feeling of wellbeing, provide better sleep, improve mood and manage stress.
But how do you walk mindfully?
As you walk, pay attention to the sensations of the body. How do your feet feel? How do the other muscles of your body compensate for changes in balance? . Note how your arms swing as you walk.
Become more aware of your surroundings, not just practically , but with an open mind, enjoying the immediacy of the sights, sounds, and smells. Open up your senses.
If your mind wanders , gently return your focus by repeating “left , right” as you walk.
