Take Time Out for a Walk

It’s important to keep a positive attitude and stay heart-healthy active. Take care of yourself by making time for a daily walk.

Walking offers the same health benefits of jogging or cycling, and the slower pace allows you to fully appreciate your natural surroundings, providing both physical benefits and a boost to your mental health.

What can walking do for you?

- Burn calories
- Boost your immune system
- Reduce your risk for coronary heart disease
- Lower your blood sugar, cholesterol levels and blood pressure
- Ease joint pain
- Reduce stress
- Increase productivity and creativity
- Improve your mood
- Elevate energy levels
- Tone your legs

Studies show that walking in natural settings such as a park or along a nature trail increase the hormones that help reduce stress and increase feelings of happiness and well-being.
