Grow the Good

Practice: Daily Meditation in Motion


Listen Later

Bringing meditation into daily life is a different beast. Today’s moving meditation will be short, simple—and really hard, because we’re taking meditation on the move so you can apply mindfulness to everyday activities like workouts or a quiet hike. In today’s episode, I break down how to shift from an ego-focused to a task-focused mindset during physical activities.

I’ll guide you through techniques to anchor your focus, using sounds from your environment or your own breath, to help maintain mindfulness. This practice isn’t just about sitting quietly; it’s about integrating mindfulness into every part of your day. Whether you’re pushing through a tough workout or enjoying nature, I’ll show you how to keep your mind present and engaged.

Here's what you'll learn:

• Real-World Mindfulness: Learn to extend your meditation practice beyond the cushion and into dynamic activities.
• Catching the Wander: Focus on recognizing when your mind drifts and gently guide it back without judgment.
• Anchors of Focus: Discover how using simple anchors like sounds or sensations can keep you grounded.
• Daily Mindfulness Doses: Implement small, manageable practices of mindfulness throughout your day to enhance cognitive function and reduce stress.
