Walking
When you’re stressed, one way to calm down is to simplify your life. You may not be able to quit your job or give your kids away, but what about your workouts? When you’re overbooked, the last thing you need is a workout that requires packing a bag, driving to the gym and slogging through a routine you’re not enjoying.
Walking is a great way to simplify your workouts while reducing stress. You can breathe fresh air, get away from your problems and move your body all at the same time.
- Put on a comfortable pair of athletic shoes
- Go outside and begin walking briskly
- Relax your shoulders, let your arms move in a natural rhythm and breathe deeply
- Keep walking for as long as you can
- Don’t forget to come back home
