Hiking Tips for Mindful Walking

How to turn your hike into meditation:

  • Use the camera but turn off notifications. Nature doesn't need filters.

  • Morning hours are the quietest. The light is softest and you often have the paths to yourself.

  • Stop every 15 minutes, close your eyes and take 5 deep breaths. Listen to what nature tells you.
