Walking Down The Path To Better Health

by adrianadams

Man is distinguished from other animals by a myriad of
characteristics, but perhaps the most obvious difference is that
man walks upright.  Whether you believe you are a product of a
higher being or evolved from other life forms, walking has
enabled humans to easily move about the earth.  In  combination
with a well developed brain humankind has conquered many
challenges and developed a host of modern marvels.

Walking enabled man to survive in the past and it remains true
today.  Walking provides the means to live longer and there is
virtually no expense involved, save for a pair of shoes - walking
barefoot in many environments may pose a health risk.  It can be
accomplished at slower speeds for the elderly or at a much
quicker pace for the younger and for both the health benefits are
tremendous.

Walking provides the opportunity to achieve better physical and
emotional health.  The old adage of a sound mind in a sound body
is certainly a benefit of walking.  The emotional benefits of
walking are as significant as the physical aspects.  It provides
a bit of an escape from everyday stresses.  It provides a time to
think if walking alone or to discuss issues, events, and daily
occurrences if one is accompanied.

Walking provides the opportunity to be an observer.  In a park
or country setting, one can simply enjoy the abundance of nature
or in a more urban setting there is the activity of day to day
living that surrounds us.  In either case the focus is often
removed from ourselves and gives our own mind the time to reflect
and evaluate.  Events are occurring outside our direct sphere of
interest and consequently the mind is often rejuvenated,
refreshed and invigorated.

The physical benefits of walking are numerous.  Our limbs are
engaged in an activity that man was designed to do.  Our muscle
structure is enhanced as well as our internal organs.  Our hearts
may beat a bit faster thus improving our respiratory and
circulatory systems.  Digestion is benefited and fat is burned
while improving our flexibility and endurance.

High blood pressure and high levels of cholesterol plague many
and the simple act of participating in a walking program offers
the opportunity to reduce blood pressure as well as cholesterol
levels in most people.  If one wants to live longer with a better
quality of life the simple act of walking is the path to follow.
