13 Feb Walking for Body Mind Health – quick tips
Tips for healthy Walking – although any walking is better than none!
- Add a bounce to your step. Walking upright and swinging the arms makes the body and mind connect to positivity rather than slouching and shuffling.
- Walk to Work. Fit walking into your daily life – and arrive at work feeling alive.
- Choose a green setting. (Or beach) Nature is so much more therapeutic than traffic (noise) and buildings (blocking visual expansion) and fumes (choking and smelly) and tarmac (hard under the feet).
- Be mindful. Being present reduces stress and anxiety. Use the senses and look up.
- Leave your phone at home. No-brainer unless you’re walking on a treadmill. Be attentive to what’s going on around you.
- Walk fast sometimes. Breathe more deeply. Get the circulation going.
- Take your dog along. Make both of you happier – and safer. And faster!
- Walk with a friend and allow for some silence between chatting.
