If you'd like to skip ahead to the moving meditation, simply fast forward this track to approximately the four minute mark.

In this episode of the Shaline Show, I invite you to practice moving meditation.

This is not a typical Shaline Show episode, but it's one I hope that you'll enjoy.

As part of the protocol prescribed to me at the Aiman Clinic to help repair my brain,

it was suggested that I practice meditation on a regular basis.

Probably much like you, I have a hard time holding still, sitting silently in a room,

and the thought of emptying my thoughts provoked anxiety.

So I started with a practice I discovered called moving meditation.

Moving meditation is a fantastic skill to develop, especially for those who aren't yet ready

or who are perhaps intimidated by traditional meditation.

Moving meditation is a wonderful alternative to those practices where you would normally be sitting still.

And it's a fantastic compliment if you're looking to boost your normal meditation.

It's also ideal for anyone who's a little intimidated by traditional forms of meditation.

Some common forms of moving meditation include walking meditation, tai chi, kigong, yoga, and even palatis.

What I love about moving meditation is that for many of us, in order to truly let go,

which is the purpose of meditation, it's easier for us to do that while we're moving.

So I recommend as you listen to this meditation that you do just that, start moving,

whether that's yoga or ideally getting outside.

Meditation and this episode can be so powerful for you by simply moving your experience to the great outdoors.

Regardless of the season, regardless of the temperature, as long as you're dressed appropriately,

spending time outdoors in the fresh air has a very calming and restorative effect.

The practice of moving while we're meditating can actually be quite calming.
