What do we gain from a long walk? Craig Mod is a photographer and writer who has done treks and pilgrimages around the world. From the Camino de Santiago to the Old Tōkaidō Road, Craig Mod transforms the simple act of walking into a meditative journey and creative practice. In his new book, Things Become Other Things, Craig chronicles a long distance journey on foot in Japan where he lives. In this conversation, Craig talks about the presence, mindset, and meditation of walking. He talks about the role that boredom plays in sparking creativity and the social conditions that allow for people to have the time, space, and flexibility to pursue their best selves.FollowHost: Chris Duffy (@<a href="https://www.instagram.com/chrisiduffy/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">chrisiduffy</a> | <a href="https://chrisduffycomedy.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">chrisduffycomedy.com</a>)Guest: Craig Mod (Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/craigmod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@craigmod</a> | LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/craigmod/?originalSubdomain=jp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@craigmod</a> | Website: <a href="http://craigmod.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">craigmod.com</a>)&nbsp;LinksBooks by Craig Mod (<a href="http://craigmod.com/books" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">craigmod.com/books</a>)Subscribe to TED&nbsp;Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> @ted</a>YouTube:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> @TED</a>TikTok:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXFocVNnRWFvUUcyWm1ib2psTkJ5RlVpOTRWZ3xBQ3Jtc0tuWkZaWEc3YzMwWkxubG9LdEJXMTBONkhOZ0VXSmtIaVFXZng3WmdEWVpUZ25BUFo1dk1jM21nanQxT2UzN25PQTNfLVVlMkw4ZVlwMUFTb05TRGJORHoxT3hoZjdfZFRQeDRBMlFIYkRJSEkwc3hhbw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiktok.com%2F%40tedtoks&v=9IFo0WjDvL4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> @tedtoks</a>LinkedIn:<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> @ted-conferences</a>Website:<a href="https://open.acast.com/networks/66e1e4bf9a7dcc160e617eef/shows/67572b3b2dd88df13220eb3b/episodes/www.ted.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> ted.com</a>Podcasts:<a href="https://www.ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a><a href="http://ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ted.com/podcasts</a>For the full text transcript, visit<a href="http://go.ted.com/BHTranscripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> go.ted.com/BHTranscripts</a> <hr> Hosted on Acast.
