Last weekend we were hiking in Jasper National Park. I have gone there dozens of times and will go dozens more and still will be amazed by the beauty it has to offer. While walking up a path at Mt. Edith Cavell, I took my time, taking in everything I could from my surroundings. This gave me the thought of practicing mindful stepping. Softly stepping with control and really being aware of the ground underneath my feet. I actually found this to be more of a workout too, as I needed to walk with control, placing my foot down then transferring weight.
I had a great time! I was glad I could take take this as an opportunity to apply concepts learned in kung fu and apply them to other aspects if life. This including something as simple as walking in a beautiful mountain range on a warm sunny day.
Take care everyone.
