I always think I will do it wrong, people will think I'm strange, etc. etc. I know, right?

Doing it daily for 41 days will surely lead to great insights for you. :)<br /><br />enjoy! <br /><br />-Mighty, www.mightyrasing.commightyhttp://www.mightyrasing.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585808.post-78827606082776859202010-08-20T07:29:25.935-07:002010-08-20T07:29:25.935-07:00Hi Britt,

When I'm having trouble justifying it, I will walk to the grocery or to do errands (or in the old days to CP group), because some of the time is off-set by the time I would have spent driving and parking. Sometimes I'll go over "lunch break", or at the end of the day as a way to decompress. When I can cajole Dave into going with me, it's been a fun family date, too. <br /><br />I never listen to music because I also justify it to myself as "working" - I think through the challenges I have and try to problem solve. You can go with a friend and get some social time in, and sometimes I catch up on my phone calls, though I try not to be too obnoxious to other walkers.monalunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14735613379001820225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585808.post-70926698292782382542010-08-16T12:18:04.034-07:002010-08-16T12:18:04.034-07:00Thanks, Mom.

One of the reasons I wanted to use an iPod was so I would know when 30 minutes was done, but I guess I could set an alarm on my phone . . .

Angeles Arrien writes that walking meditation is the meditation of the visionary and I like to add artist to that too...as it creates such a vast open being space for creativity to flourish. <br /><br />I love to do it first thing in the morning. Wake, wash, tea, walk. Also, I suggest you change it up once in a while and walk in a park/nature without an ipod to hear the songs of nature and tune to the vibration/frequency of Earth.

It is a gift to be able to take a brisk, vigorous walk. So many people have limitations and are not able to take a walk, so go for it!<br /> Mom AagesonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585808.post-68036180308853318152010-08-15T11:15:00.241-07:002010-08-15T11:15:00.241-07:00Hi Alison -

I know that some of my walking is going to be a mix of reflection and utilitarian - walking to the grocery store, or to the BART.<br /><br />I'll have to add some Beyonce and Lady Gaga to my next playlist (:Britt Bravohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02134123127272499735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15585808.post-54857087599749135572010-08-15T08:06:28.887-07:002010-08-15T08:06:28.887-07:00I'm not sure where you live, but before I star...I'm not sure where you live, but before I started hitting the gym I started walking by walking to a train station further from my house. The closest train stop to my house is one block away. I walked to a train stop that was about 15 blocks away on most mornings. If I couldnt do it in the morning, I would do it after work. <br /><br />I also walk a bit further to places I need to go by getting off the train at earlier stops. So I need to go to 14th street, I'll get off at 8th street and walk. <br /><br />And anything by Beyonce and Lady Gaga should do the trick :)Allison Joneshttp://www.allisonj.orgnoreply@blogger.com
