Good habits can make a person very healthy and happy; if you want to be physically fit and emotionally healthy then walking is the right option. (Yamashita, K., Yamashita, T., Sato, M., Inoue, M., and Takase, Y., 2020)
It is said that the human body takes about twenty-one days to inculcate a habit. Step out of your days and go for a walk; do not exert too much pressure on yourself. You can start by going for a walk only for 10-15 minutes at first and then as soon as you get habitual to walking every day; you can slowly increase the time limit.
Nobody likes walking in a crowded shop or in a very dirty place with litter all around. Choose a good location where you would want to go for a walk every day; it could be the pretty garden in your neighborhood or the area around the hilly mountains. Choose a calm location with pretty surroundings.
Walking is a type of sport and no sport can be performed if the shoes are not right. Buy the right shoes; mainly with a lot of grip or shoes with cushioned layers. It can make your everyday walk simple and efficient.
At first, making it a habit will be tough but it is important to not let your guard down and give up. If you give up in between then it will get difficult for you to inculcate this habit all over gain; read some optimistic quotes and gather your strength altogether.
If you are the type of person who tends to get bored while walking alone then ask some of your friends to join you. It is a known fact that walking with some people you are closer to tends to make your walk enjoyable; you are inculcating this habit for your own self and it should make you feel happy and cheerful.
Walking surely boosts your immune system and keeps you away from physical illnesses but also it helps you to elevate your mood and makes you feel cheerful. Studies have shown that walking early in the morning increases the dopamine rush in your mind which makes you feel joyful and energized throughout the day; which is why therapists usually advise patients suffering from depression and anxiety to go for a walk early in the morning. Walking is a great way to improve your lifestyle, you do not necessarily have to be a gym freak or an athlete to make yourself physically fit all you have to do is grab your shoes and go out for a walk.
