Walk as It
Last September, more than 140,000 people in 167 countries gathered to Walk for the World – our first international Walking Meditation. It’s time to come together as a collective consciousness and do it again. To feel empowered. To embody hope. To strengthen those signals of coherence.
When we first conceived of a global walk, it was with the idea that now, more than ever, the world needs change. Because we see our inner work has tremendous impact on our outer environment. When we change, the world changes. And the more we demonstrate change, the more we raise the frequency of the planet.
Our research team is working to measure that impact on a global scale. This is our experiment, but we need your help.
Let’s keep walking and leading – in peace, healing, love, and unity. Holding the shared intention for global change. Join us again and Walk for the World.

About Dr Joe Dispenza
As a New York Times best-selling author, researcher, lecturer, and corporate consultant, Dr Joe’s work has led him to develop a practical formula to help people transform their lives.
Dr Joe’s mission seeks to unify many branches of science in a very simple way, with a focus on research and the data behind spontaneous remissions. Inspired by the latest findings in neuroscience, epigenetics, and quantum physics, his work integrates essential knowledge that teaches people how to heal their bodies of health conditions, make significant life changes, and evolve their consciousness.
Since 2010, he has partnered with scientists and universities to perform extensive research on the effects of meditation on the brain and body. During his advanced retreats around the world, his team has gathered more than 18,000 brain scans (quantitative QEEG) and 10,000 heart-rate variability (HRV) measurements in an attempt to correlate the effects that sustained elevated emotions and self- regulation have on heart and brain function, immune response, and overall mind- body health.
He and his team also have studied gene expression, protein regulation, immune response, neurotransmitter changes, telomere length, and variations in bioactive cellular metabolic particles in novice and advanced meditators.
