How Can Walking Help You Overcome Stress?

overcome stressStress is inevitable given the fast-paced life all of us lead. It is something that can take over us completely if we do not make an effort to overcome it at the right time. There are many ways you can minimize and cope with stress and walking is a great way to overcome stress!

Most believe that walking only helps one lose weight or get into shape. But, it’s way more than that. It also helps you overcome stress. Exercise in almost any form can act as a stress reliever. Being active can boost your feel-good endorphins and distract you from daily worries. Walking is one way to lower your stress levels.

Any kind of Aerobics exercise (more than 2 minutes of walking is Aerobic exercise) has the power to swing an individual’s mood. If it is done every day, it can enhance self-esteem as well.

How Can Walking Help You Overcome Stress? 

Pumps up your endorphins: Walking increases your overall health and your sense of well-being and preps you up to take more steps every day. Walking also has some direct stress-busting benefits. Whenever you do any kind of aerobic activity you release endorphins (feel-good hormones). The higher your level of endorphins, the greater your sense of calm and well-being. No wonder that walking can make you feel so good!

Meditation in motion: After a fast-paced game of racquetball or several laps in the pool, you will often find that you have forgotten the day’s irritations and concentrate only on your body’s movements. As you begin to regularly shed your daily tensions through movement and physical activity, you may find that this focus on a single task, and the resulting energy and optimism, can help you remain calm and clear in everything you do.

Improves your mood: Regular Walking can increase self-confidence, it can help you relax and it can lower the symptoms associated with mild depression, stress and anxiety. Walking can also improve your sleep, which is often disrupted by stress, depression and anxiety. All of these walking benefits can ease your stress levels and give you a sense of command over your body and your life.

So whenever you feel you are stressed, go for a walk and come back feeling good and stress-free!

    This made me smile. I am a walker. Yep, I said it. I have been a walker for as long as I can remember. Growing up in the country, our little dog and I went on daily (sometimes multiple times a day) walks. No leashes. Just exploring.
