Mindful Walking and Workshops

4/16/2018

Although rooted in Taijiquan and aged old Taoist body work philosophy and principles. It can be easy to underestimate, perhaps due to the simplistic nature of our practice, the direct effects and the potential of the daily act of Mindful walking has in regards to our spiritual, mental, emotional and physical stability and health.
Mindful walking is about being present, focused and aware. It is the quietening of oneself. It begins by ‘turning the ear inwards’ and listening to the internal changes occurring within the body when both idle, and in motion. It is the appreciation and the cultivation of the simple and the near in the here and now, it is, reacquainting oneself with an old friend long hidden amidst the hustle and bustle of “modernity”.
After having learned the physical parameters of Mindful walking and we begin to soften and relax into our practice, our posture, balance and blood-flow will improve. Ease of movement and joint-health will become noticeable, and our breath will become soft, deep and even and the mind will have a deepened sense of ease and calm.
I do not know this from a book, a video or, chasing after an ideal. I know this viscerally, through my own daily practice.

This is a quote from my teacher Sifu John Hartley about the mindful walking system he has developed. It is transferable to any style of Tai Chi as it follows the taijiquan principles.
