How Do You Walk Through Life?: Michael Gelb on PYP 614

Michael Gelb returns to the podcast to talk about his latest book, Walking Well, co-written with Bruce Fertman. In our conversation, we cover a wide range of topics:the biomechanics of walkinghow we can powerfully improve the experience of walking through simple mindfulness and imagination exerciseswhy walking is the quintessential human activitythe benefits of walking (physical, cognitive, emotional, spiritual)other basic human postures (standing, sitting, lying down)materialist vs spiritual orientation to lifeand much more...Michael makes the case that walking, if done well, is kind of a magic Swiss army knife for life. It can give us the same benefits as meditation, strenuous exercise, yoga, breathwork, and many other "advanced" modalities.From the eminently practical (you'll learn three exercises that will have you walking better in minutes) to the deeply philosophical, this is a conversation (and book) that you won't want to miss.LinksMichaelGelb.comWalkingWell.comWalking WellLessons from the Art of Juggling
