      It honestly isn’t as hard as it sounds. I started taking walks over traditional exercise years ago and it’s done wonders for my physical and mental health.

      Listen to your favorite podcast and just walk down the block and back. Keep it short.

      The most important thing is consistency. After you do this for a while, you’ll naturally find yourself wanting longer walks, different routes.

      But the key is consistency so better to start with something short but do it everyday.

        Increase, I can manage a mile a day or something but I looked up how much 6000 was and that’s over 2 miles.
