"Navaho Blessing Way"

This excerpt from a Navaho Indian song called "Navaho Blessing Way" is a great meditation for walkers. Read, meditate or chant it as you walk. What better way to celebrate that you can walk.


My interior feeling cool, may I walk.

No longer sore, may I walk.

Impervious to pain may I walk.

Happily with abundant dark clouds, may I walk.

Happily, on a trail of pollen, may I walk.

Happily, may I walk.

Being as it used to be long ago, may I walk.

May it be beautiful before me.

May it be beautiful behind me.

May it be beautiful above me.

May it be beautiful all around me.

In beauty, it is finished.
