Today I believe it is time to go out and go for a walk. I believe that you should walk or do some sort of exercise daily. It just seems after you have reset yourself with a day of nothingness, you need to get out and say hello to nature. I find that going for a walk is quite therapeutic; but mostly I like sauntering, taking my time and noticing everything around me.
Where I live there are beautiful trails that have lots of wildlife. Whether it is a walk along a riverside or a stroll by the ocean, I am truly blessed at the options that are presented to me. And if I please, I could just go to the wildlife park that is down the road. My Love and I keep each other in good company. We never are at a loss for good conversation. I have to keep the pace though, as my medical condition slows me to a turtle's pace. Life is not meant to be lived in the fast lane. We are only on this planet for a limited amount of time, so slowing down, enjoying nature and talking with loved ones is definitely a great happy builder.
Here is some advice which I got years ago from someone I think quite highly. When you listen to your body and it is telling you to move, your body wants to move. When I have a lot of anxiety, stress or am just having a highly emotional day, my body screams at me to go out and walk. It actually yells at me to run, but I am unable to do that right now, maybe sometime in the future, who knows. Listen to your body. Your muscle memory acts like medicine for your body, it remembers what you have done in the past to alleviate pain.
So gently lift of that veil of doubt, and get up and move. Take whatever you need. A walker, a cane a friend or just you and enjoy today.
