Affirmation for December 28, 2010: Walking
I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.
- John Muir, 1913, in L.M. Wolfe, ed., John Muir, John of the Mountains: The Unpublished Journals of John Muir, 1938
Thought of the day:
Most people think of walking as a way to get from point A to point B. Others may think of it as a daily exercise, something to invigorate the muscles and keep the heart going. But few think of walking as a true meditation, as powerful as those practiced by Buddhists and yogis.
Have you tried walking just to walk, enjoying the sights on the outside, and the serenity within? Try making it a habit, and see if it doesn't start to assuage your mental ails.
Have a relaxing day!
