Looking for a winter meditation practice? 

Try taking a meditative walk in the snow.

Walk slowly, settling into your breath.

Feel the cold air on your cheeks. Watch your breath crystallize in the air. 

Pay attention to the crunch of snow underfoot, to the caress of flakes on your face.

Listen to the life around you, the call of chickadees, the caw of a crow.

Watch the flight of a red-tailed hawk. Note the prints in the snow, squirrel, rabbit, fox, turkey.

Inhale and exhale, paying attention to your body, to the world around you, to winter.
