Top Ten Reasons to
Walk!
1.
It is great exercise. Walking is an aerobic, low impact exercise that can be done
without special equipment or training.
All you need is a place, time and your own two feet.
2.
It is excellent for mental health. Walking clears the head, and lifts the
spirits.
3.
Walking is good for creativity: when I am unable
to write or think, a good walk always gives me fresh ideas.
4.
When I walk under the sun, I absorb vitamin
D.
5.
Family time; walking with loved ones allows down
time away from distractions. We
have the best conversations walking.
6.
Enjoyment of nature: I have walked on the beach, in the mountains, along
riverbanks, and under every color of sky.
7.
Discovery of new places: There is no better way to explore a new
place than on foot. Whether on
vacation or exploring a new neighborhood, walking allows me to experience,
smell and feel the new place.
8.
Walking lowers blood pressure and helps with
weight loss. This can allow you to
take fewer drugs or medicines for the same problems.
9.
Time to reflect: Who has time to simply think and imagine in this busy
world. While on a walk I have time
to be alone with my thoughts, or to use my imagination.
10. Walking
is Free! Walking is a great hobby
that costs nothing, can be done anywhere, and that needs no special
equipment. I really don’t know why
people spend so much money on specialized hobbies when walking can bring so
much pleasure.
