joined the class yesterday, practiced today. As I practiced the sitting meditation, multiple thoughts came to my head, linked to meditation somehow. I thought of how this was easier listening to someone than doing it on my own. I initially tried the meditation at work, in between clients. No walking meditation prior, but did listen to the mp3 on walking prior. I feel generally I have to do my meditation at work, b/c I have my dogs and fiancé at home. But in listening to this I realize, maybe my fiancé and I can do it together. This and other numerous thoughts went through my head, and I had to remind myself “later”, I could acknowledge these thoughts but push them to later. Even if these thoughts were related to meditation, I had to focus on now. This is where guided meditation and this class can be helpful for me. I can focus on something vs. just a phrase (which I have been doing).
-I was curious, can you do walking mindfulness while walking the dogs? This is something I already do several times a day, and feel it could be productive.
