In our conversation, we cover a wide range of topics:
the biomechanics of walking
how we can powerfully improve the experience of walking through simple mindfulness and imagination exercises
why walking is the quintessential human activity
the benefits of walking (physical, cognitive, emotional, spiritual)
other basic human postures (standing, sitting, lying down)
materialist vs spiritual orientation to life
and much more...
Michael makes the case that walking, if done well, is kind of a magic Swiss army knife for life. It can give us the same benefits as meditation, strenuous exercise, yoga, breathwork, and many other "advanced" modalities.
From the eminently practical (you'll learn three exercises that will have you walking better in minutes) to the deeply philosophical, this is a conversation (and book) that you won't want to miss.
