Joseph Goldstein leads a guided Walking Meditation. Walking meditation gives a different experience of awareness with visual feelings and movement.
A note from Sean
When sitting feels stuck, I sometimes suggest not sitting at all for a while. Practice mindful walking instead. Sense the bottoms of your feet as you walk slowly, around the block, on a trail, or back and forth across a room. Doing only that can bring you back to the body.
Try this today. Walk slowly for five minutes, indoors or out. Feel heel, arch, toes. When your mind wanders, feel the next step.

This suits anyone who finds sitting hard. If balance, pain, or an injury is a concern, walk a short, safe stretch or just stand and feel your feet. Stop when you need to.
