Gehmeditation im Mühlbachtal

One Step at a Time: Walking Meditation in the Mühlbach Valley

: This evening, we’ll learn about walking meditation and then take it to the place where it’s most at home—out in nature. In silence, we’ll walk through a quiet valley nearby—the Mühlbach Valley.

Walking meditation is an important bridge between formal sitting practice and mindfulness in everyday life. Chökyam Trungpa Rinpoche writes: 

“Walking meditation is truly very important. It is much closer to your everyday situation than sitting meditation. In the walking practice, you get up from your meditation cushion and get a taste of what it’s like to walk down the street, talk, and work. Walking is therefore a very important transitional phase, even though in this case it is still part of formal practice. From this perspective, you should pay attention to it.”

Dates: Thu, August 13 & 27 
Time: 6:00–8:30 p.m. 
Meeting place: 6:00 p.m. at the Rigpa Center in Heidelberg (see below) 

After a brief introduction and sitting meditation, we’ll carpool to the Mühlbachtal.

Everyone is warmly welcome—whether you have meditation experience or not—so feel free to bring someone along.

We look forward to this shared experience in nature!
 

Warm regards

Wolfgang, Michael, Renate & Jonas
