Checklist for Walking Meditation Class

Check out this Guided Walking Meditation created with help from my friend Alan Grimm

OK! Here is a good checklist for your walking meditation class.

Weather
Check the weather. As long there is no thunder or lightning; you can have a great walking meditation session. I have meditated and walked in the snow, light rainy, and windy conditions. Check your email for any last minute cancellations.  For night walks, please bring a flash light.

Footwear
Walking barefoot or with shoes - I suggest you try different combinations. I have walked barefoot, used flip-flops (can be noisy but rythmic :-) or good walking shoes. Some people prefer sandals. I suggest you keep an alternate pair in your car.  Appropriate footwear is recommended if you want to protect yourself from accidental foot injuries or when we are walking at night.

Clothing
Light, loose clothes are preferable. Avoid tight clothes. Jeans, shorts and t-shirt or your work-out clothes that fit comfortably are good choices. Please bring an umbrella and warm clothing if conditions are rainy or cold.

Seating
Folding chair/mat for sitting - most walking meditation sessions are done in beautiful locations. I prefer to sit before and after my walking meditation session. I also like to lie in the grass and enjoy nature.

Notebook/Pen
Walking meditation will trigger your creativity. If you want to capture your thoughts, bring a pen and a note book.

Water/Snacks
Avoid caffeine or sugary drinks. Fruits, nuts and a bottle of cold water may be good to have in your car. Kleenex and wet wipes are recommended.

Sunblock/insect repellent
If you are sensitive to bugs or the sun, these are handy to have around.

Mobile Phones
Keep your phone handy in case of emergency, but set it to the OFF position and leave it in your purse or pocket. Cell phones can be very distracting, they will disrupt your experience.

Please contact Dr K if you have additional questions or comments.

Thank you for the invite! Hopefully, I can resist the temptation of throwing the tennis ball 😊
