Moving Meditation: How it Trains Your Mi...

Dr Daniel & Tana Amen
About this episode

Former monk-turned author Jay Shetty says that meditation is not about emptying your mind. Rather it's on directing your mind to enable you to stay present and focused. And this practice of training your mind doesn't necessarily have to take place while seating in a quiet spot with no distractions. In this last episode of a series with Jay, he and the Amens discuss some of the ways you can train your mind to see beauty and complete experiences while in motion, whether it's through yoga, martial arts, or just taking a walk.
