Recently a client was telling me that she wasn’t getting many steps in because she really only likes to hike in nature.
Walking is really one of the best things we can do for our health. Most of the people I follow put walking on the top of the list of things we can do for our mental and physical health every single day. And they recommend 8K as a great number to shoot for which I think is very doable!
It’s easy. You don’t need special clothes. You can do it in the mall in the winters, or in the gym anytime of year. Being outside is a break from technology(if you don’t bring your phone) but breathing fresh air is always good for our bodies and souls.
My reply to my client- suck it up buttercup. I actually don’t care if you like to walk in your neighborhood or not, you just have to do it. She actually lives close to a great bike path with hills and is away from cars which is ideal!
She was a good sport and laughed and said ok I’ll do it.
Sometimes we have to do things that might not be on the top of our list of things we like because they are good enough.
Walk daily. Period. Our bodies are meant to move. Even if you work at an office- get up at least once an hour and walk the long way to the bathroom. Every step counts!
Your health is your greatest wealth!
Do you count your steps? I’d love to know how much you get on the daily… hit reply and lmk!
