Regular, brisk walking helps improve stamina, energy, confidence, life expectancy, weight control, and reduces stress. It also lessens the chances of strokes, diabetes, coronary heart attacks, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, bowel cancer, type 2 diabetes, depression and anxiety. Scientific studies also show that walking, apart from its physical benefits, also benefits the mind by improving learning ability, memory skills, abstract reasoning, concentration as well as lessening anxiety and uplifting the spirits. Sustained walking sessions must be undertaken for a minimum time frame of thirty to sixty minutes every day for five days a week while maintaining the correct walking posture to avail its benefits.
