Beautiful piece. As a person whose life has been transformed by walking, I definitely appreciate the necessity of doing it right. Walking for health is not a joke. I focus on the intensity aspect, highlighting the brisk walk as key to wellbeing.
Thanks! Come to think of it, the first time I read your great writing was Walking the Bible, another walking journey. I learned so much there from your descriptions of climbing Mount Sinai and much more.
Thanks for sharing! I've always loved walking but during COVID I ramped up things way up. It's been transformational - time to connect with my partner, exercise (duh), good times with my dog, out in nature, relaxing, too many to list! Now I need to go and when I don't my day feels a little off.

I wrote extensively about walking on my Substack, The Healthy Jew - Finding Wellness With Purpose. Check out the post here: https://thehealthyjew.substack.com/p/the-wonders-of-walking
Thank you for sharing. And I hope others here will join me in supporting your Substack!

Clarity thru distraction has been a long-held belief. Read, study, load up on data points and then go do something else.
When that ‘something else’ distraction is outdoors, it’s even better.
Nicely said.

Sorry I couldn't reply earlier. I was out taking a walk!
What a beautiful note, thank you. Keep walking!
