A short morning walk can be an easy way to get away from screens and start the day with a change of scenery. It does not need to be long or fast to be worth doing.
Keep the routine simple
- Start with 10 or 15 minutes around the block.
- Wear comfortable shoes you can grab quickly.
- Bring water on warmer mornings.
- Use earbuds only where they do not reduce awareness of traffic or other surroundings.
- Keep the goal easy enough to repeat.
