It is a given that physical exercise, especially walking, lessens stress and is healthy for our heart and other body systems. The benefit of being outside in nature has the ability to change moods and add to a sen
se of well-being. Communing with nature with a partner, friend, or family member can enhance relationships. So why not combine all three and take a hike?
So many of us think hiking is for the outdoors or athletic type of person. Yet, we will think nothing of taking a walk through a woods or park when we are on vacation. Most hikes require no special equipment except some comfortable shoes and a water bottle.
Google hiking trails in your area to find those in your neighborhood.
Self care can be healthy and FUN!
