Like the Greek said “Walking is the best medicine” - Hippocrates
“Walking enhances every aspect of our social,psychological and neural functioning. It is the simple.life-enhancing,health- building prescription we all need,one that we should all take in regular doses. And walking also brings with it marvelous problem solving powers. Your creative impulses, fostered by walking, will help knock the problems of life over”
