I read somewhere recently that people are encouraged to unplug for two hours each day so that they can be in tune with their thoughts. This book serves as a primer for that exercise, offering questions that one can ponder as one takes all sorts of walks and hikes.

This was a beautiful little guidebook for walkers. Each chapter is presented as a "thought" for the walker to consider or an activity on walking and mindfulness/zen. The book specifically focuses on mindfulness tips, ways to appreciate the present moment, exploring nature and our souls. It is a great companion for anyone walking for any type of wellbeing. I look forward to trying some of the tips on my daily puppy walks. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the e-book in return for an honest review.

Becoming aware of life's questions and answers through 25 walking meditations. This book is well laid out and written in plain English, making it easy to understand. Each scenario laid out in each chapter with references to Buddha and Buddhism. But as the author states you don't have to be a Buddhist to appreciate the exercise and mindful benefits of these meditations.

In a world where we measure our days in tweets, posts, and episodes of the latest binge-worthy show, we could learn a lesson by stopping to read this title.

Studies show that practicing mindfulness can, over time, be an effective tool in treating depression. Likewise, exercise has proven to have the same benefits. This is a great book that assists readers in combining the two. It's a handy guide that will be useful to those fighting illnesses such as depression, as well as those who simply want to cultivate more lasting peace of mind.

To be honest, I spend my time walking thinking about all the things I need to do, or need to fix. I wasn’t sure how this book would fit with my style of walking, but I was pleasantly surprised, Yes,there are some “have gratitude while you walk” parts but there are also thoughts on taking time to enjoy the nature around you as you walk. I confess that I too, have felt up more than my fair share of trees. A nice gentle book and good excuse to lace up your walking shoes

An interesting book. Not what I expected. Definitely a one-read only. I love walking, but wouldn't use this book.

This is a nicely composed beginners guide to mindfulness. I like how Ford explains being mindful without getting caught up in wordy terminology that I see so often in books of this genre. This is perfect for the novice that may be looking for mindfulness as a "hobby" or something they can do when the mood strikes them.
