The social and cognitive benefits of walking

An enthusiastic endorsement of walking from In Praise of Walking: A New Scientific Exploration by Shane O’Mara: “…walking is hugely beneficial for our minds, our bodies and our communities.

More about it:

• “Walking is holistic: every aspect of it aids every aspect of one’s being.”
• “Walking provides us with a multisensory reading of the world in all its shapes, forms, sounds and feelings, for it uses the brain in multiple ways.”
• “Walking together can be one of the best experiences of walking.”
