I think so. Whatever gives you the best result. You always have the answer inside you. Don’t listen to anybody else. You know your own truth. I like very much dancing to music with soul vibration and texts with meaning. I just move my body as it wants to, and I have gotten a lot of guidance out of that❤️ Good luck with moving💃
i like to sit cross legged and breath and focus only on my breath but every once and a while i stand and extend my arms when i breath in and bring them in when i breath out
Definitely, I believe yoga is form of moving meditation. It certainly calms and centres me. I feel like I’m a better person after yoga. It takes a lot of my anxiety angre and frustrations away. Which is mostly caused by my back pain. Making me more appreciative and mindful. I’ve always had back pain, it was normal to me, so I forgot I had it. At one point it got worse and caused most of my anxiety. I cried after coming back to yoga. I wasn’t aware of the amount of tension and pain that I got used to. Relieving that pain was what made me fall in love with yoga. It also helps me meditate, gives me more to focus on than just my breath. I find it the easiest meditation. As you have to focus on a lot of your body parts at the same time. Basically giving you no choice but to be present with your body and breath. It’s a very euphoric state. Basically saved my life.
i rather breathe and talk to myself sitting. I do like hear soft music and think in positive things i have on my life and the goals i wanna achieve ASAP waiting for myself tho
Yes, as long as you feel like you are relaxed and in tune with your body, moving meditations count! You should look in to tai chi and yoga - both excellent forms of moving meditation. Good job meditating - do what works for you!
I prefer sitting techniques, because I have no place to walk or doing meditation while I move unless I’m going out of home. Since I often suffer from dissociations, I prefer to do things that may trigger this at home
Yes moving meditation counts. Meditation is focusing on something and continuing to focus on said thing regardless of your surroundings, a present walk in a forest is just as much meditation as sitting for 10 minutes focusing on your breath.
Moving meditations are a great way to keep the mind calm in EVERY situation no matter what you’re doing it going through. It keeps the ripples inside the mind, that occur as a result of the daily chaos of life, calm.
I personally use a breathing meditation which makes me focus on my breath and it’s possibly one of the most common, most effective techniques
Walking, sitting, and lying down are the three classic meditation postures, but the end goal is to practice mindfulness at all times in your daily life, which often is while you are moving. Having a dedicated practice is important, but I don’t think it’s important that it be a sitting practice if walking meditation works better for you. If you want to try sitting practices, maybe try noting, body scans, metta, or The Mind Illuminated method of breath focus and see if any of those resonate more. Good luck!
