Walking is one of the best things in my life. It's very centering:
- it unglues me from devices (I don't listen to anything during most of my walks)
- it makes me open to sensual details of the world (such as: frozen dew on grass makes nice crunchy sound when walked on)
- it makes me explore and connect to my surrounding area
- it makes me feel good after I've finished the walk (nothing like coming back home after a nice walk outside).
Sometimes I feel like I'm too tired to go for a walk in the evening, but it's just "brain fog" from all day of sitting and thinking and being stressed in job. If I force myself to go out, usually I feel ok after 10-15 minutes of walking and can easily walk for 1-3 hours feeling energized rather that tired. For reference, my daily average walking distance over past 2 years is 5 kilometers.
