Shīghra Chankramana
Brisk Walk
Pace where you could talk but wouldn't want to sing.
20 minKaphaPitta
How to do it
Set a pace where you could hold a conversation but wouldn't want to sing. Keep the arms swinging and the chest open rather than looking down at your phone. If your route has a hill, take it early while Agni is still high.
What it does
The highest-adherence movement there is, because it asks almost nothing.
When you'll be given it
Kapha mornings, and as the shortened session on heavy days.
Where it comes from
Chankramana is named in the classical daily routine.
Take care
In Grishma or any midday heat, move this to early morning or after sunset.
Not sure whether it suits you? Ask a Vaidya.
There's no button here to start this. Your practice is prescribed each morning — that's what keeps the dose honest.
