Name: Mindful Walking 101 - An Introduction to Mindfulness and Walking at Central Park
Start: 2015-05-30T10:00:00-04:00
End: 2015-05-30T13:00:00-04:00
Location: Central Park

Come join us for our next event!

Learn how to walk better, get in great shape, make new friends, and turn your walking into a mindfulness practice.

In this session we'll cover the basics, from:

* Benefits of Mindful Walking

* How to Begin Mindful Walking

* How to Meditate while Moving

* Breathing for Mindful Walking

* Very Basic Mindful Walking Exercises

Don't be scared off if you're not a fitness walker, or haven't walked much in years -- or even if you're coming back from injury and simply want to get moving again.

This clinic is truly for all levels, from soon-to-be-former couch-potatoes, to future charity-event walkers (and future mindful runners!) plus everyone in-between.

And don't worry if you've never meditated before or struggle to meditate. Quieting the mind while moving is hard-wired into our being. It's a survival mechanism built into our DNA for exploring, hunting, and escaping predators. So it's easy to learn and we'll show you how.

The tools you'll learn will help improve your walking, and help you rewire the mind. So the benefits will remain even when at home or at work. This helps you become more relaxed, present and focused, more patient, sharper and clearer thinking, more productive, and of course better able to breathe and to sleep!

Note: We'll only be doing a few hundred yards of walking as we practice new techniques, so you need not be in shape, or show up with fresh legs, ready to walk a 10K. Far from it. This is a fun hands-on learning session, rather than a fast-paced walking one.

We can't wait to meet everyone, and see you there. Prepare to have fun!!!

Further Note: The Meetup is officially from 10 - 12 AM followed by a short Q/A. However, feel free to join Jessica and me for a silent mindfulness meditation from 9:15 - 9:45 at the south end of the Great Lawn as well. (Just by the turtle pond - maps to be posted shortly!)
