Today is a rest day, but I've included the walking meditation video as it's a noteworthy method of training your brain to become more comfortable with slowing down.
Pro tip: I get that for many people the thought of walking slowly might sound dumb, or super irritating if you have a busy nervous system, but that's exactly why you should give it a try! Below I've listed some benefits of walking meditation.
Increases emotional regulation: It helps build self-control by providing distance from triggers and strengthens the ability to manage urges.
Reduces stress and anxiety: The practice of mindful movement can help lower stress levels and reduce anxiety, leading to a greater sense of calm.
Improves mood: It can decrease negative self-talk and improve overall emotional well-being.
Enhances cognitive function: Walking meditation can sharpen focus and concentration by engaging the prefrontal cortex. It also improves memory and can boost creativity and problem-solving skills.
Promotes better sleep: The combination of movement, mindfulness, and fresh air can have a calming effect, leading to improved sleep quality and reduced insomnia symptoms.
