0:00A quick note, on this show you hear about how meditation is great for us.

0:04Actually doing it is the hard part.

0:07But walking meditation can be just as powerful and easier to fit into your day.

0:12So let's walk together for 10 to 15 minutes on my new podcast.

0:16I'd love for you to join me.

0:18Just search for Step Into Calm in your podcast app and look for the one from Optimal Living Daily.

0:25Before we start, I want to share a super powerful practice I use called NSDR or non-sleep deep rest.

0:32In just about 10 minutes or so, this yoga nidra practice leaves you feeling as refreshed as after a nap without actually sleeping.

0:40Experience it for yourself on our guided podcast.

0:44Search NSDR and look for the one from Optimal Living Daily.
