Walking mediation 

The instruction says: 

Fix your eyes on the ground about 1,5 meters ahead of you. Zero in on the ground. Keep it in focus. Ground ahead goes blurry, means you’ve zonked out and daydreaming.

Walk in slow motion. Breathe in slowly. One foot is going up. Inhale is up, send a message to your foot saying “ok, foot, stop right there, in the air, you’ve reached the highest point”. Breathe out as the foot’s going down. When it touches the ground, shift your weight to this foot. Change of foots. Repeat with the back foot. 

Ah, I get it, so turn yourself into human super slow metronome.

Sync steps with the breath cycle. Coordinate breath and step. However you sync is really up to you.

So, picked up the case to one step for inhale, and one step for exhale. Needed to go to the kitchen. Martha on the kitchen sofa: “You’ve got lunacy?” “It’s walking meditation”. “Sure it is…” 

… Feet hitting the ground. Sensation of clothes against your skin. 

“You look like a crazy person in a nutt house, ” she goes again. “And what’s with the breath? You sound like Darth Vader. You’re mental.”
