You do not need a gym or special clothes to be healthy. You only need comfortable shoes. Walking is the easiest sport in the world!
Walking makes your heart and lungs stronger. Doctors say adults should move for about 150 minutes a week. That is about 20 minutes a day, but even ten minutes is a good start.
After a walk, many people feel happier and calmer. A walk in a park or near trees is even better. It is also a good time to think.
People who walk during the day often sleep better at night. Try to walk in the morning or in the afternoon, when it is light outside.
Take the stairs, not the elevator. Get off the bus one stop early. Walk and talk when you call a friend. Go for a walk after dinner with your family.
So put on your shoes and go outside. Ten minutes today, twenty minutes tomorrow!
