What do you think of when you hear the word "meditation?” What do you imagine? A quiet room filled with robed monks? An Instagram influencer sitting cross-legged on an empty beach with her eyes closed? Or even "moving meditation?” What comes to mind then? Yoga? Tai Chi? Qui Gong? What if, in addition to traditional forms of meditation, resistance band training, aerobics, lifting weights, trotting the dog around the block, dancing with your love, or simply walking across a parking lot counted? What if you could make every move a meditation? In her new book, How to Make Every Move a Meditation, award-winning Mango author and certified meditation leader Nita Sweeney shows readers how to transform any exercise, fitness routine, or activity into a powerful meditation practice by incorporating centuries old techniques of Buddhist mindfulness. You've no doubt heard about the power of both movement and meditation. Numerous studies show that both exercise and meditation: Reduce anxiety Boost mood Stabilize blood pressure Improve cognition and brain health Increase positivity Lead to a deeper self-relationship Awaken awareness Stimulate compassion Movement is medicine, and meditation is medicine. Let's combine the two.
