When you're in the mountains, silence seems to be a natural part of walking. Tara Brach simple instructions on how to do walking meditation: As you’re walking, it’s quite natural for your mind to wander.

Green Moun­tain
By Li Bai

You ask me why I dwell in the green moun­tain;
I smile and make no reply for my heart is free of care.
As the peach-blossom flows down stream and is gone into the unknown,
I have a world apart that is not among men.

Happy and safe traveling to our third yoga holiday group that leaves for Chitral today :)
