THE ADVOCACY FOR TAKING A WALK

Taking a walk is one of my favorite things to do. Taking a walk, especially one without destination is one of the most freeing things you could do. I realize, when I am just sitting at home, I have an urge to be occupied and unless I intentionally meditate, then I’ll feel the need to do something, but if my intention is on taking a walk without destination, I give that restless portion of my awareness to the sensation of walking while experiencing a wide range of different sceneries; my background is stimulated enough to give me space to breathe and think of anything and everything. I would even compare it to driving without destination as well, especially late at night with no other cars on the road, pure meditative. I will advocate for stillness as I believe it to be the foundation for meditation, but taking a walk, I believe does great things to the body-mind.
