We spend most of the day narrating our own lives. On this 15-minute listening walk you go quiet, turning your full attention to the sounds of your environment until the internal monologue finally drops away. What is left is a deep, receptive mindfulness that no amount of thinking can produce.
Safety note: Keep your eyes open and stay aware of your surroundings. Your safety always comes first. Follow the audio only as far as it's safe to do so.
What you'll explore:
The difference between hearing, which is passive, and listening, which is active presence.
The calm that arrives when you let go of your own thoughts and simply witness the world.
Techniques to widen your auditory field and connect with everything around you.
How to get the most out of this walk:
Pick out sounds both near and far: the wind, traffic, birds, or your own footsteps on the ground.
Step Into Calm is a daily walking meditation podcast where each episode is a short guided meditation to help you build mindfulness, ease stress, and find calm, clarity, and focus in just 10 to 15 minutes a day.
