Insight, joy, and serenity are available to you in every moment, whether you’re sitting in silence or strolling down a bustling sidewalk in the city. This is the promise of Walking Meditation, an essential guide to cultivating mindfulness and presence no matter where you are.

Created by the Nobel Peace Prize-nominated Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh and one of his first students, Nguyen Anh-Huong, this practical book shows readers how to establish their own walking meditation practice. These esteemed teachers will lead you progressively from basic mindfulness techniques such as conscious breathing and walking mindfully in nature, proceeding to methods for meditative walking even in busy public spaces.

Now including online access to audio and video guided meditations, this newly revised paperback edition of Walking Meditation brings these insights to a harried world increasingly in need of them.
