Moving Meditation

Fragments from imaginary dialogues

“What are the two most important practices?”

“Movement and Meditation.”

“Why?”

“Movement is essential physical training.
Meditation is essential mental training.

Movement is an essential pillar of Health and Energy.
Meditation is an essential pillar of Concentration – maintaining your Attention on one thing and cutting through distractions.

Both are essential prerequisites for clear Thinking and Peak Performance.”

“If you see them as two distinct entities, you can only practice them sequentially. That is inefficient use of time.”

“What do you suggest?”

“Integrate them into one practice: Moving Meditation.

This way, whenever you practice one you also practice the other, thus increasing practice density. [<link; short read]

To make the practice memorable, you can think of it as yummy food for your BodyMind, and you can access it through their combined initials.”

“MM… It makes me smile, I like it.

MM also makes me think of Memento Mori and Mental Models.”

“The more things you connect it with, the better. Each of those things is a potential reminder for the practice.”
