Walking strengthens our bodies, calms our minds, and lifts our spirits. Our choice in how we walk, however, can enhance any of the above. For instance:
-Walking in cold weather burns extra fat and builds extra muscle
-Walking alone strengthens our memories
-Walking in woodland helps us sleep
Our choice of location, time, direction, duration, companion, and even our gait, can transform our daily stroll.
In this handy love letter to walking, Annabel Streets shares not only the joy of walking but the science behind it. Accompanying each of the 52 ways of walking is not only the explanation of the benefits but also practical tips for making the most of your steps.
