Walking mindfully in nature can be a transforming experience that helps us connect with our environment and develop our spiritual consciousness. When we step outside, we intentionally remove any tension in our bodies, giving ease and openness. By becoming increasingly attuned to the sensation of the soil with each step, we immerse ourselves in the present moment. Our breath gives us a new sense of connection and life as it pulls us forward.

We are inspired to look at the world with new eyes when we are out on a mindful stroll, looking out the wonder and beauty that may have gone unnoticed in the past. Through the colors in the sky, the patterns in the clouds, and the sound of the wind rustling the leaves, the nuances of life invite us to admire its intricate tapestry. Each interaction becomes an opportunity for connection and a reminder of our shared humanity.

As we move forward, we develop an attitude of gratefulness, pausing now and then to consider the parts of our walk for which we are grateful. A few examples include the vibrant colors of a flower in full bloom, a gentle breeze touching our skin, or the sincere smile of a bystander. These moments of gratitude help us gain a deeper knowledge of what really matters to us by drawing our attention to the things that have meaning for us.

If you can right now, let's go on a short walk. Getting outside can open your perspective, connect you to the environment around you and to the divine. As you begin your walk, focus on releasing any tension you may be holding throughout your body. Let your arms naturally swing, and notice the feeling of the ground beneath your feet. Bring your chin and eyes up from the ground if you're looking down. Let your breath invigorate you as you walk. You can go as slow or fast as you'd like, just stay soft and easy. Look around you. Even though you may be in a place that's familiar to you, try to find new things to notice. What colors are in the sky? Can you find a shape in the clouds? Is the wind rattling the leaves on the trees? Are there toys in a yard, markings on the sidewalk? Are there any cars parked crooked on the street? Take another deep breath. Pay attention to how the air feels in your nose. If you pass another person, smile and say hello. Reflect on what you've noticed so far. What of these things are you thankful for? Does the thing you're grateful for reflect something that matters to you? Continue this pattern of relaxing, observing, feeling gratitude, and identifying what matters to you as your walk makes you more and more spiritually aware.
