How I do my latest meditative run and walk!

Warning:  It takes a lot of time(years)to develop the ability to handle this spiritual-physical exercise in its most intense form.  The body needs to be given time to adjust as to frequency, duration, and intensity of any intense type exercise including this meditative type.  One should consult a Medical Doctor or Mental Health Professional  if you have any conditions that could make this exercise unsafe in any way.  This should be done at your own risk.  The spiritual has a really inner individual focus,  unlike science, and one has the accept responsibility for ones own actions and ones ability to sense intuitively what will work best for you.  Crisis always entails risk, and all effective spiritual exercise trains one to handle life at its most intense, so their will be risks, and one needs to do ones best to be vigilant so as to avoid serious trouble even when faces really tough challenges.  FEEL FREE TO SIMPLIFY OR BE CREATIVE WHEN USING THESE MEDITATIVE EXERCISE TECHNIQUES SO AS TO MAKE THEM MORE READILY FIT YOUR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS!
When doing meditative walking, I really focus on moving my arms back and forth and my shoulder up and down, and lifting my legs up and putting them down precisely with quick short steps and a sort of side to side movement. The arm and shoulder movements help me to get more blood to the brain so as to put more intensity(effort level) into the meditative exercise.. I do the rapid mouth breathing(in and out with each step)which help to create the meditative state which does slow the body down! I do shut my eyes periodically pretty tightly at times within the breathing cycle which is mostly focusing on 4 steps at a time. Shutting the eyes tightly can help relieve tension and alleviate ocular headaches that can result from the intensity of the exercise! When I shut my eyes I can connect)tune into more with the emotions that I tend to pick up from the outside world when I open my eyes! Also while doing these exercise I can focus on emotions(including anxiety) I have been affecting me in recent times and have a positive impact on them and those who are associated with them!  I  find the body reacts differently spiritually when the eyes are closed especially when in a meditative state. I also will intensely open and close my mouth without closing completely on the teeth! I do this in rhythm with my breathing! I find breathing through the mouth(not the nose) is required to make this work well. It is harder for me to do this with my mouth closed so I do it the way that works best. You try to focus to the point your mind becomes quiet(in the zone) at times. But, the mind will often have to do some thinking and figuring things in your life out while doing these meditative walks.

These meditative movements are  cat-like movements with a dance type quality to them!  When doing my meditative walk, I can quickly transform my energy in order to speed up or sprint when it is helpful to avoid certain situations or get across the street quickly and make walk signals in time.  The energy I run into can feed into these sprints!   The sprints are also good survival/fitness training!  This meditative techniques is extremely advanced and intense because I designed it over almost 4 decades of effort using a lot of experimentation and trial and error. It is unlike any technique out there!!!

When you get more advanced in these meditative walking exercises you can alternate to styles! First you do about 4 steps while crouching with legs bent(cat-like)to increase tension with help one do quicker more intense leg movements and then do the next 4 steps more upright with the focus more on the vigorous shoulder/arm movement so as to allow the legs to recover so you can be ready to do the cycle over again! You get in a rhythm with the focus sort of going up and down with the alternating focus. You will need to be creative and figure out what works best for you! You can try to close your eyes as often as you can in rhythm with your breathing, but that you can safely do based on the dangers the terrain and situations presents themselves. You always have to do what you have a lot of confidence you can safely get away with. You always have to be aware and deal with any potential dangers that could result in harm to ones wellbeing. Being super vigilant in a meditative walking state is required to benefit the most from it. As one tunes in better spiritually you will gain more awareness on how to stay vigilant spiritually in a very precarious world.

When doing a meditative running you use a similar technique as when meditative walking but with more speed while breathing in with one step and out with the next and with more of a running techniques. You can also use the same technique of the alternating styles mentioned above for meditative walking, but while running. But meditative walking can be very similar to running because of the rhythm to the movement although done slower.  

Start out with short distances! The body does need time to adjust and overdoing it when you are not ready can lead to injury, fatigue, and burn out! I am now only doing a mile meditative run followed by a mile meditative walk in the morning and another mile meditative walk later in the day.  I do stationary type meditation when ever I feel I need them and for as long as I feel I need to!  I focus more on quality than quality!

4/30/19  I am focusing more on side to side movement and using my toes more to lift my feet to enhance the speed of that movement.  I am also focusing on breathing in and out more vigorously with the intense  jaw movement helping me do this.  5/10/19  I am making an effort to spread my feet farther apart which helps with balance and ability to do quicker steps with added quicker side to side movement.  Also opening and closing my hand with each step which is a technique I have used previously.  focusing on ones toes and hands(peripheral body parts)  helps one get more of a whole body meditative focus.  The focus on the toes and foot movements also help one stay grounded.  Meditative walking is sort of like dance and does help you gain more control of ones body which is helpful in many athletic pursuits and to move well when in a crises situation.

7/18/19:  I have stopped doing my meditative runs, although I do sprint at times when crossing intersections and at other times to help me navigate quickly pass certain spiritual energies on the mean streets of Las Vegas!   I am now doing my meditative walks a little slower and focusing more on the intensity of my breathing. I am on a new phase since I do not need to focus so hard on spiritual theory development as my astrology system is working really well! I need to just rely heavily on my current spiritual theories and programming! I will always be open to improving my spiritual theories, but need to get out of the extreme spiritual state that separates me from others in this spiritually backward world. The spiritual truth has a lot of power, which so many people do not seem to understand! Spiritual theories that work are more important than any spiritual personalities from the past. This challenging physical world is what can really test how well ones spiritual theories/programming really works. We need spiritual theories that help us better focus within this reality and that are clear enough to readily apply! We have challenging times ahead of us all on this Earth and we badly need a more rational/sane spiritual approach in order to gain the focus required to handle them effectively!

8/24/19  I now do quite a few meditative walks a day!  I have done up tp 14 miles(once) with 7 two mile sessions!  I use side to side motion with short quick steps trying to move my shoulder up and down as quickly as I can which helps quicken the steps.  I will squat s little to increase tension and help increase how many steps I do!  I do breath in and out with each step so the more steps the faster I must breath in and out!   If I get any pains I try to increase how hard I breath.  I can stop at “don’t walk” signs and then(while waiting) do a standing meditation focusing on breathing hard and moving my shoulders rapidly alternately up and down,  while bending my knee and connecting with the stillness around me.  When the opportunity arises I can mix a few short intense sprints in(I am conditioned to handle these)!  I do my meditative training on the mean streets of Vegas(with some crazy people to deal with) and have to deal with traffic too and will race across intersections or to avoid danger when I feel like it will work well!  I will feed off the energy around me.  I feel safe because I know my body is conditioned to handle almost anything!

11/15/19  I now jerk my shoulder up intensely with each rapid short step! This intense shoulder action creates more side to side motion helping me land these quick precise steps!  I try to move with the type of attention to stepping in a way that helps me focus on every sound in my environment like my survival depended on me to do so.  I continue to use the other features to the technique mentioned in the last paragraph/update! The meditative exercise is an exercise that is suppose to make one more spiritually sensitive in a way that will help one to pick up on anything psychically that is of the most vital importance to whatever task of real importance that one is trying to achieve.   We have so many serious problems in this world that impact people personally that need to be adequately dealt with!  Also we have so many psychological/spiritual problems within the individuals on this planet that also need people extremely well trained spiritually to help them deal with them!  Here is a link to my blog post that deal with these  latest changes in my meditative walking techniques in more detail!   https://astrogoodwin.wordpress.com/2019/11/15/my-dislocated-shoulder-self-rehabilatation-and-its-role-in-developing-my-very-advanced-meditative-techniques/

1/3/20  On  DEC 20th 2019, I started running again( 3 miles every day).   I recently had the flu, but did not let that stop me! My “neurologically different” body does best when I push the edge! I would not have survived as long as I have in this world which is very hostile toward me, if I did not use my extreme approach guided by my well trained intuition! My spiritual mindset has to be better than others! Most people in this world have no idea how much further they could evolve spiritually and are just passively guided by the spiritual fads of the times with out much deep thinking about how much this limits their potential!  When I run, I swing my arms and shoulders as vigorously as possible which makes the run more “meditative”, difficult and intense!
1/17/20 Started meditative running twice a day: 3 miles each time!  I have changed my run into a meditative exercise that is more intense than my meditative walks!  I use a similar technique with the intense arm and shoulder movement and side to side movement!  I breath really hard  in with one step and out with the next!  I sort of skim along with sort of a dance type movement!  I really will need to demonstrate this on video when the opportunity arises!
2/8/20  When I meditatively run I now have to focus my intensity mostly on my shoulder movement and side to side movement and ignore how fast I am going! It is a slow run, but gets the heart rate up with its intensity! It is a little like dance with quick steps and intense breathing(breathing in with one step and out with the next)! The focus needs to be on the back of the neck(near survival/reptilian part of brain) and the area between the eyes. I do close my eyes at times in each 6 to 8 step cycle when the surface and traffic is safe! Minor injuries have forced me to avoid focusing overly on forward movement!  I now mostly do meditative runs, replacing most of my meditative walking!

It takes a long time to get good at this meditative movement exercise, but I have trained hard a lot of ways in the past including Marathons which I have run two official ones back in early 2006, so I knew about training hard from my past experiences, but spiritual training is a lot rougher, since training oneself extremely hard emotionally(spiritually) requires this training in order to condition the body to handle and heal the intense traumas that often comes with living in a really challenging physical world.  Emotions power the spiritual and one must overcome(heal) ones emotional and physical traumas in order to become more effective spiritually!  So many people are negatively triggered(upset) when certain sensitive subjects come up!  This world is full of conditions that can be abusive to ones emotional wellbeing and leave emotional scars!

In order to positively handle all of the spectrum of emotions and thus gain the spiritual balance and grounding required to get the most out of oneself, one must develop the overall emotional strength and will power  needed to direct ones desires in a way that one can be in the kind of shape(emotionally and physically) to take on the really intense problems that this modern world is so full of!  One spiritual programming/theories must be reality based enough to be able to handle the hard dose of reality(difficulty) that this type of training involves.  So many spiritual beliefs are escapist in nature and prevent people from handling life at it most difficult really well spiritually!  That is why this world is so backward spiritually.  Improved spiritual training required one improves ones spiritual theories and not be locked into the beliefs of the past!
