Today I'm sharing my answer to the question "Can my movement practice BE my meditation?"

The short answer is (of course) you can do what you want! This isn't going to be a lecture about how you "should" be meditating. But, is there a difference between moving meditation and stillness meditation? What are the benefits of including each in your overall practice?

In this episode, I talk about why I think both forms of meditative practice are equally valuable, how we can learn different things from movement-as-meditation and meditating in stillness. And, I'll touch on why some of us might benefit from starting with a mindful movement practice first.

I'll also share why I'm an advocate for "de-compartmentalizing" movement/yoga and meditation, and why I prefer that term over "integrating." And, I'll suggest some ways you can play with de-compartmentalizing movement and meditation in your own experience, so you can enjoy the full spectrum of mindfulness in all activities.
