May – the month to talk about walking for ‘wellbeing’
Walking is simple, free and one of the easiest ways to get active, lose weight and become healthier.
Alongside the more obvious physical goodness, getting out in and connecting with nature is positive for your mental health and if you choose to walk with others the social aspect is of benefit too.
You might find regular walking:
Improves mood
Reduces stress and anxiety
Helps you sleep
Increases energy levels
Helps you to maintain a healthy weight
Keeps your muscles and bones strong
Increases your cardiovascular fitness
Starts conversation
Reduces the risk of depression.
If you are considering starting a new routine, or even if you’d like to take on a one-off walking challenge (like one of our supporters) then why not ask some friends and family to sponsor your effort?
