Question 1

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

Anything comfortable. Don’t wear something that makes noise, like a bell, or other noisy jewelry.

Question 2

Can I take breaks?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the practice isn’t strict. You can break for water, using the toilet, stretching, resting, or asking one of the facilitators a question. Just pay attention, if you are taking many breaks, maybe you are avoiding the practice.

Question 3

What should I do with my hands while I walk?

Accepted Answer

It doesn’t matter, whatever is comfortable.

Question 4

Can I walk alone?

Accepted Answer

Anyone who wants to try this practice is more than welcome to do so. You can watch our Instructional Guidelines video, which is all the information you need in order to start the practice. That being said, there can be a certain advantage to walking with the group led by the facilitators, and if that is an option where you are, we recommend it. If it’s not an option, feel free to reach out to us via email or Facebook, and our facilitators are also happy to help guide you through the journey from afar.

Question 5

Is it ok to go about my normal schedule during the 4 days?

Accepted Answer

We recommend finding 4 days to do the walking where you have as little other obligations as possible, in order to allow yourself to experience the full process. The effects of the practice continue even when you’re not walking. You may find that you’re more sensitive, have more energy, or have less energy. Any way that the process manifests for you is fine, and having the space to allow the process to happen can be beneficial.
