I did some experimenting today with Japanese walking that Kiran Goyal and Konami had shared with me β¦ was happy I found an app for that so I didnβt have to keep watching the clock and could continue to listen to my audio book

Hi my dears! Half hour morning walk done! This is near the San Mateo levy running a block away from home. Love and best wishes for the walk love!
Pasting some benefits about it per morning time benefits!
A morning walk feels so good because it works on your body, mind, and energy all at once:Physically:
β’ Overnight, your body is stiff and circulation is slower. Walking gets your blood moving, joints loosened, and oxygen flowing.
β’ It helps regulate cortisol (stress hormone), which naturally peaks in the morning β so the walk balances it out instead of letting it spike.
β’ Sunlight exposure boosts Vitamin D and sets your circadian rhythm, making you more alert during the day and sleep better at night.Mentally:
β’ Walking outdoors in the quiet morning reduces mental clutter and anxiety, almost like meditation in motion.
β’ Nature sounds, fresh air, and open space calm the nervous system.
β’ It gives you a gentle dopamine and serotonin lift β so mood improves without effort.Energetically/Emotionally:
β’ The morning air is usually fresher, with more oxygen and negative ions, which can literally make you feel lighter.
β’ It creates a sense of accomplishment early in the day, which sets a positive tone.
β’ Spiritually, many traditions view the early morning (Brahma Muhurta, dawn time) as the most sattvic β peaceful, clear, and uplifting.Thatβs why a morning walk feels like youβve pressed a βreset buttonβ β your body wakes up, your mind clears, and your mood brightens.
