64: The Silent Walking Trend Isn't What It Seems
app.wakingup.com/promotions/redeem CODE Andrew
In this video, we dive into the trend of "silent walking" that has recently gained popularity among Gen Z, and how millennials have responded with snarky comments. We begin with a quote from Jonathan Swift in 1710, "Everything old is new again," highlighting how various trends and practices from the past are being rediscovered by millennials and given a modern twist.
The video explores the concept of silent walking, its origins, and its benefits, emphasizing that it's essentially a form of meditation and mindfulness. It questions why millennials are often quick to mock Gen Z for embracing this practice while they themselves have "rediscovered" many things from the past, such as knitting, analog music, journaling, and retro gaming.
The video also touches on the importance of meditation and offers a 30-day free trial for the Waking Up app by Sam Harris, a tool for practicing mindfulness and meditation. It concludes with a reminder that many practices and trends resurface over time, and how "everything old is new again."
Remember to like, subscribe, and share your thoughts on whether millennials or Gen Z are taking the "L" in this scenario. The video is hosted by Andrew, providing an engaging and thought-provoking exploration of these trends and practices.
