Subject: Six reasons why walking is the best medicine for mental health
Did you know walking can help you work better, help with addiction, make you happy and keep you young? Walking can make you more creative and give your confidence a boost in addition to creating new brain cells that can help with decision-making and learning. By releasing endorphins, walking can also make you feel happier and it can also help control addiction by increasing dopamine. Walking can even help you age by sharpening memory and by preventing cognitive decline.
Key Takeaways:
- If you've hit a lull in your work and are feeling sluggish, head out for a short walk.
- According to research, workers who exercise regularly have more energy and are more productive than those who do not.
- If your work schedule allows it, try to plan your walk for midday as that's the best time for a walk according to your body's circadian rhythm.
"A lot of people take up walking in hopes of getting fit or losing a little bit of weight, but many people find that it becomes a surprisingly enjoyable habit once they get started."
