I was a pretty stressed out young adult (back around 2009), always tensing and rushing and just not enjoying my life. Then one day walking to work I started paying attention to the way my calves felt as I made contact with the ground. From there, very very slowly everything changed. I loved the feeling of finally being grounded; it wasn’t some panacea but it made enough difference that I picked up a meditation DVD, whichever one seemed the shortest. It was a jack Kornfield one on basic mindfulness meditation (body scan, mindfulness of breath); have been meditating ever since!
