Thats a challenging one to answer because the reward can often be the joy of the destination. I LOVE hiking. Yet, I would have to say walking in the native bushland. The reason behind that is finding hearts. It's something that I started doing a few years ago. Looking to the universe to find evidence of love. Youd be amazed how many times I can find heart shapes in the bark of trees, limbs, rocks on the ground. Love is all around us, it's so easy to thump out the steps with a mind that is anywhere but present and being mindful. I've found that the benefits of walking have exponentially increased since starting this practice. It's also great fun to do with someone else if you have the chance.
What have you rewarded yourself with today to thank yourself and your body for doing the best you could with the resources you've had available to you (mentally, physically, emotionally)?
