I’m feeling great as I write as this very moment as I totaled an hour of walking today. I usually walk an average of 20-30 minutes per day but on days when the weather is perfect, I add a few more minutes to my daily walking routine.
Walking has a lot of benefits to our body. If you walk on a regular basis, it burns lots of calories. I can imagine it to something like attending several personal training courses or applying for personal training careers for free! Walking does a lot of wonders to me as it is not only just a physical activity but more of a spiritual and mental activity. When I walk, especially in the afternoons, it serves as an avenue for me to think of the things that happened during the day, be thankful for the blessings I received and sometimes think of my dreams and plans for the future. Walking also de-stresses me and keeps me happy.
At the end of a busy day at work, it’s one of those activities that I look forward to doing.
Have a great and healthy week!

Walking is one of my favorite things to do, too. It gets a little boring and monotonous when I have to do it on the treadmill but it still helps a lot in improving my mood and in clearing my head.

I’ve been dancing for 10-30 minutes a day building up stamina. I feel great as well.

Agreed! Walking is definitely a superb overall workout.
Most days i’ll either walk or run. and its these moments that i am most peaceful.
And doing so in the neighbourhood is fun. I get to check out the cars, cats and dogs:D Can’t do that in our hot Malaysian afternoons though. Morning is still the bets. The sacrifice of waking up earlier before work just to walk or run is so satisfying…
Happy walking!
