The Mental Benefits of Walking from Arthritis Today, 2010.
"For someone who walks regularly, their body is
better able to deliver oxygen to all systems, including the brain, because
they’ve improved their cardiovascular function. Not surprisingly, regular
walkers report better mental clarity and ability to focus. Creativity is
enhanced because walkers have the ability to relax their mind and let it wander
around while they’re walking. Outdoor strollers can have the benefit of
beautiful scenery as well as just seeing things from a different perspective,
which stimulates creative thought and the imagination. Whether you want to
improve your body, your mind or both, the benefits of walking should encourage
you to make the time to do it."
