52 Ways to Walk (Hardcover)

Hardcover. Walking strengthens our bodies, calms our minds and uplifts our spirits. We know this intuitively, and recent years have seen an explosion of scientific and evidence-based research to substantiate that. Feet First is a book that celebrates the simple act of walking. The book outlines 52 ways to walk, one for each week from January through to December, and all of which can be done by anyone, anywhere, such as:- Walking uphill- Walking in the rain- Walking alone For each of the 52 ways, writer and walking-obsessive Annabel Streets, synthesises the latest science and also interweaves the romance of getting out into the fresh air. How we breathe, how we take in our surroundings, how we process thoughts, and how our bodies tick are all powerfully transformed by even a short walk, and the natural landscape we walk in can have a profound effect on our wellbeing too. Beautifully designed and pocket-sized, Feet First is a handbook to all the good things that happen when we step outside of our door.
