    I did not know about that but there is a general belief that exercises that stretch the spine help in increasing one’s height to a little extent.

    True…..people who want to get away from stressful situation do go for walks to get their mind off and come back to a better frame of mind.

    I mostly do around 7000 steps a day. This does not include the steps during my morning and evening walk. Even if I miss my walking schedule, my job keeps me busy and active during the day.

    Some reptiles leap on the surface of water with their feet sometimes touching the water surface occasionally which gives us the impression that it is running fast on water. Except insects probably nothing else can actually walk on water. We can swim and lose weight, so why think about walking on water.

    When I do not listen to any music while walking, I plan for my day ahead. I remind myself about the meetings and other matters on my schedule.

    Yes that is true. I wave at the little kids playing in the park during my walk and they do wave back without any hesitation. Such positive vibes in the morning definitely makes my day.

    I do that once in a while but I do not make it a regular affair as it takes off the pleasure and benefits of walking.

    Interesting!! I keep my smartphone in silent mode while I walk, so that my walking is not interrupted and that I do not fall behind on my target to lose those extra calories that I gained.

    That is cool. I always listened to some soft music while walking. This helps me to relax as well as concentrate on my breathing while walking.

    Ardent walkers can use such loop trails when they want a change of scenery from their usual walk in the park or the treadmill. People in other countries should choose suitable areas in their locality to go on such walking trips once in a while.

    @Asad …..I agree with you. Walking barefoot on grass is stress relieving. We can feel that connection with nature.

    Walking on the beach is indeed relaxing but since I have to travel a couple of miles to reach the beach, I walk in the nearby park.

    If you have difficulty breathing or get short of breath with brisk walking, it is advisable to consult your pulmonologist or cardiologist as there may be some underlying health issue.
