“Breathwalk at its very simplest means putting breathing patterns and walking together into a carefully and beautifully timed single, synchronized movement. It is walking harmonized with breathing.”
- Gurucharan Singh Khalsa, Ph.D., and Yogi Bhajan, Ph.D., Breathwalk
Breathwalking is a great way to combine three ancient wellness techniques: walking, breathing, and meditation. I sometimes use it in the afternoons. But, I also find myself using it periodically when walking just about anywhere.
Here’s a good one to get started:
Inhale 8 steps, exhale 8 steps
Do this for 3 min
Walk normally for 2 min
Repeat as needed
It’s simple yet surprisingly powerful. Give it a shot and see how you feel.
