      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:
      • Overnight, your body is stiff and circulation is slower. Walking gets your blood moving, joints loosened, and oxygen flowing.
      • It helps regulate cortisol (stress hormone), which naturally peaks in the morning — so the walk balances it out instead of letting it spike.
      • Sunlight exposure boosts Vitamin D and sets your circadian rhythm, making you more alert during the day and sleep better at night.

      Mentally:
      • Walking outdoors in the quiet morning reduces mental clutter and anxiety, almost like meditation in motion.
      • Nature sounds, fresh air, and open space calm the nervous system.
      • It gives you a gentle dopamine and serotonin lift — so mood improves without effort.

      Energetically/Emotionally:
      • The morning air is usually fresher, with more oxygen and negative ions, which can literally make you feel lighter.
      • It creates a sense of accomplishment early in the day, which sets a positive tone.
      • Spiritually, many traditions view the early morning (Brahma Muhurta, dawn time) as the most sattvic — peaceful, clear, and uplifting.

      ✨ That’s why a morning walk feels like you’ve pressed a “reset button” — your body wakes up, your mind clears, and your mood brightens.
