Walking meditation can be very enjoyable. We walk slowly , alone or in company , preferably in a nice place. Walking meditation means to enjoy the walk , do not walk to get there, but simply for walking. The purpose is rooted in the present and aware to breathe and walk , enjoy every step. Therefore, we must shake off worries and concerns , not thinking about the future , do not think about the past , but just enjoy the present moment . We can do this by holding the hand of a child , walk one step after another, as if we were the happiest people in the world. We walk all the time, but usually we do running , and in this way we leave footprints on Earth, anxiety and pain. When we walk , we should do it in such a way as to leave only footprints of peace and serenity. All we can do that , provided you really want . Every child can do it. If we can take a step like that, we can make two , and then three, four, five. With a single step for peace and happiness contribute to the peace and happiness of all mankind . Walking meditation is a wonderful practice . When we practice outdoors , walk a little more slowly than usual and coordinate breathing with the steps . For example, let us make three steps inhaling and exhaling three steps . We can add the words: In , in, . Out , out, out . In helps us identify the inspiration . Call a thing by its name makes it more real , its like saying the name of a friend. If your lungs require four steps instead of three it give it four . If it takes two , it give her both. The duration of the inspiration must not necessarily be identical to that of exhalation . For example, you can take three steps to every four to each inspiration and expiration. If walking you feel happy, peaceful and joyful your practice is correct. Be aware of the contact between your feet and the Earth. Walk as if baciaste the Earth with your feet . We have done so much harm . It s time to take care of them . We bring our peace and our calm on the surface of the Earth, and learn to love her. We walk in this spirit . Occasionally , when we see something beautiful , we can stop looking at it : it can be a tree, a flower , children playing . As we look to continue to follow your breath , do not miss the beautiful flower and not being sucked in by our thoughts . When we want to walk again , start all over again . Each step will give rise to a breeze that refreshes us in body and mind. Each step makes a flower bloom under our feet . We can only do that if we do not think about the future or the past , if we know that life is to be found only in the present moment . ( Thich Nhat Hanh , Peace is every step. Ubaldinis Publisher )
