I know a miraculous cure, ladies and gentlemen…for whatever ails ya.
I’d like to share with you a miraculous cure-all…and guess what? This cure is absolutely free! You heard it right, folks. It is a cure for anything and everything, and it costs you nothing.
What is this miraculous, elusive thing that I’m talking about?
Walking.
This is the perfect time of the year for this miracle drug, because soon it’ll be too hot to enjoy. It’s the perfect temperature to get outside get some vitamin D. Walk for leisure, for exercise, walk for your blood pressure, walk for your mental health, walk for your clarity, walk for meditation, walk for your circulation, walk because it’s a free activity…walk because it’s always readily available to you..
I do apologize if you are not able to walk, but if you can get up, go outside, get moving, then get walking. This is the perfect time of the year to do so because Spring is finally here!
It’s the exciting change of season where things are coming to life and growing, so with every breath, the fresh air that you breathe in makes you feel invigorated to get outside yet again and walk a little more and more every time.
Walking is the medication that will not harm you and won’t have any side effects other than soreness - but let’s be honest - we all need to be sore in this way. Couldn’t we all stand to walk a little more?
Did I mention this miraculous cure-all is absolutely free?
You don’t pay anything for this medication. You don’t have to beg, borrow or steel for this cure. It’s free, and it’s always readily available.
Walking is good for your heart, your body and soul, and it’s good for your physical and mental strength,. It’s good for your endurance. It’s good for you in every way!
If I have not inspired you enough yet, let me hopefully bring it home by powering you with this iconic quote from the hit movie from 2001, Legally Blonde: "Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don’t! “Elle Woods says this while defending Brooke Windham, highlighting her unique, optimistic perspective on life and legal defense.
My point? When you’re out moving, you’re happy. You can’t get into too much trouble when you’re happy!
I become a bit of a recluse every winter. It’s too cold for me so I dislike being outdoors even for a moment. Being inside too long really does influence our emotional state, mental clarity, our and perspective. Since being cooped up too long affects our mental health, I remind myself often that we as children of God are to walk in the light. I don’t believe this is just figurative. I honestly believe this is also literal because I personally know that I feel better when I am outside in the sun getting vitamin D.
Right now, the temperature feels great. Getting out walking in the light is good for my soul, and when I feel good, I help other people around me feel good, and then those people help other people feel good. It’s the ripple effect gift that keeps on giving. And we are all better for it!
However, when we stay inside, and we don’t feel very well, it’s hard to walk in the light and shine that light. No judgment here from me, the ole winter recluse!
Stuck in your head? Got the stinkin’ thinkin? Mad at the world. Bitter at life. Woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I know something that can help you see the bigger picture.
I know a cure! Go get some of that free and fresh air, invigorating vitamin D the sun offers, and start walking.
I bet it’s the cure-all you’ve been waiting for! I just wanted to offer it to you.
Happy Springtime and happy walking!
