Walking Wednesday - join me for a walk!

Hi everyone!

I hope you're having a good week. I struggled with anxiety and insomnia earlier in the week and was super tired, but thanks to better sleep and some encouragement from my mum and partner, I'm feeling a lot better.

I want to get out for a short walk around the park at lunchtime so I'm setting my intention to do so here - and I invite you to join me virtually if you'd like to.

All you need to do is get moving for a few minutes (record it on EXI if you can) or comment on this thread - here are some ideas:

Post a comment with the intention to join in

Post a selfie on your walk (or a pic of the view or your shoes if you're shy!)

Post your steps/times/distance if you would like to share

Post a pic of your pets (always encouraged!)

Post some encouragement if you can't join in today or if walking's not your thing!

I hope you'll join me,

Sarah x

I did it! I set myself the goal of doing 20 minutes of brisk walking this lunchtime, but I met a neighbour so it turning into 15 minutes of brisk walking plus a lovely 5 minute chat about how action can be the enemy of anxiety!

Both the walk and the in-person interaction have contributed to me feeling more positive and energised for the rest of the day. Woohoo!
