Walking Well

Two polymath movement experts draw from their 100 years of collective training, helping others learn how to walk effortlessly, breathe easily, think creatively, and feel deeply alive

Walking is good for you. It can regulate weight, improve sleep, elevate mood, transform stress, and boost creativity and productivity. Most people want to walk more. But what if the key isn’t just to walk more, but to walk better? To connect with your physical body and unlock more energy, more vitality, and more fuel for imagination and creativity?

Walking Well is designed to help readers do just that by presenting a three-part journey to improved movement:

• Part 1: how to become aware of and release the tension that interferes with natural walking
• Part 2: practical methods that teach the reader how to receive energy the moment it’s expended, discover the harmony of walking and breathing, and awaken an archetypal animal verve so that every step becomes more poised and powerful
• Part 3: meditations on walking in solitude, walking with others, walking for inspiration, walking for transformation

Filled with simple, practical guidance from authors with, collectively, over a hundred years of teaching people how to move well, this book not only improves how we walk but reveals how much is possible for us once we know how to walk well.
