Practicing A Noting Meditation

If you want to quiet your mind — or enjoy a meditation while walking or hiking, this noting meditation is wonderful to experience. You can also do this throughout your daily life when you're not working or in conversation!

If you are doing this while seated I invite you to sit with your back straighter than usual. You can have your eyes fully open for this or closed whichever you prefer. You can also do noting as a walking meditation walking through your neighborhood or your lawn in your backyard or on a hike or really in any walking situation at all. I'm going to do this while sitting with my eyes closed.
