New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| Walking is wonderful exercise that provides gentle muscle toning and builds cardio function. Buddhist monks incorporate walking in some meditation, using the rhythm of their footfalls as a tool for being present in the moment. Walking is also an amazing form of transportation. It's cheap, fossil-fuel free, and can be done anywhere. No special equipment is needed, but a well-fitting pair of shoes is recommended. Today cast a walking spell. Get outdoors in the sunshine, indoors in a mall, or brave the snowy streets. As you walk, breathe deeply. Let your eyes delight in your surroundings as your feet lead you to a sense of peace. This spell takes a mere fifteen minutes. At the end you will be magically uplifted with increased oxygenation and a slightly elevated heart rate. The endorphins released by exercise will leave you feeling good and able to appreciate the profound magic of health and well-being.
