I am wondering are you practicing Theravada Buddhism? I am loving your videos by the way! :-)

I find them very interesting and helpful.

Keep up the good work friend...

@TheravadaInsight yes, following a Burmese tradition based on the teachings of Mahasi Sayadaw. Thanks for the feedback; looks like you're up to good work as well. All the best :)

@HeroldLt I can't say anything for cancer but body awareness therapy has been shown to be tremendously effective with MS and walking meditation is a huge part of that. It doesn't really matter either way; I doubt anyone with cancer decides the best cure would be walking meditation =]

iv discovered my mind is constantly wondering after watching these videos lol, im almost never really fully aware of anything in this sense.

[HeroldLt]

What evidence do you have for these claims of curing cancer and MS? Just anecdotes? That's the same level of support you'll see for quackery. Please consider the strength of your claims.

Out of hundreds of videos i have watched, i found your video to be most helpful. Moreover your voice is so soothing..and my mind goes into a very tranquil state, just by listening to your video, sitting with my eyes closed. Thank You very much.

@travhanes Yes, this is natural. This is the purpose of meditation. You are now seeing your thinking as it arises. When this happens just note, "Thinking... thinking... thinking..." Sometimes when we are practicing walking meditation and we have a lot of thinking it is useful to stop walking (Note: "Stopping, stopping, stopping") then note the thinking. Once the thinking subsides or the awareness shifts back to the body then continue the walking.
