Walking: an exercise with Mind rather than of the body
Originally appeared on spirituality.com
I love to walk. When I’m at work, I usually eat lunch in 15 minutes and spend the rest of my lunch break walking. On Saturdays, I take a half-hour walk early in the morning. I like to think of walking as an exercise with God, with Mind, rather than exercise for the body. It’s a time for me to talk with God.
My husband, meanwhile, prefers to jog. And occasionally, on weekends, when he's finished his six-mile run, he’ll walk with me. One Saturday, he got home just as I was heading out, and said he’d join me. I didn’t plan to do it, but found myself jogging with him—one mile, two miles. During the third mile, my husband asked if I would jog all the way with him. I didn’t say yes or no, but just continued at the same pace. I finished the entire six miles—and I didn’t complain or feel any fatigue.
