This 10-minute guided walking meditation walks the workday off you a piece at a time, so the tension does not come through the front door with you. You arrive home as yourself, rather than as the last two hours of your job. 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: How naming what is still sitting on you takes some of the weight out of it. A way to set down the parts of the day that are finished with you but not yet gone. The physical signs the workday is leaving, from loosening shoulders to a slower jaw. How to get the most out of this walk: Walk this between work and home, even if that only means one lap around the block first. Leave the phone in your pocket for the whole ten minutes so nothing pulls the day back in. 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.
