Do not forget to walk

Despite the exceptionally hot weather these days, one should still not eliminate all forms of motor activity, especially the simplest and most common: walking. Certainly one should choose the early morning or evening hours. One can also start with a slower pace than usual, using as a criterion for evaluating effort, the possibility of being able to speak without perceiving a particular effort.

During this walk it is important to live with pleasure in the present moment, one step after another.

It may be helpful to exercise control over breathing by maintaining one’s habitual inhalation and trying to lengthen the expiratory phase by 3 to 4 seconds. In this way, the stride will continue to be coordinated and the walk will flow in a relaxed manner.

A 30-minute walk is more than enough to achieve benefits on the cardiovascular system and muscle tone and also on improving one’s moods.

Walking together with other people with whom to share this experience is certainly more enjoyable than walking alone. It also stimulates motivation especially in the initial stages of this motor activity and allows it to become a daily appointment not to be forgotten.
