Walking is one of my favorite forms of exercise. Besides walking, I used to practice yoga and run. The running stopped, and the yoga part turned into stretching sessions. But walking is a natural part of life for me, and I continue to enjoy walking just for the sake of walking, and no other activity is necessary for me while walking. I enjoy being completely present and experiencing the scenery, the breeze, the sun, and my own thoughts and feelings.
Walking is my medicine
I love walking. Is my favorite activity. I walk every day
How to be consistent in walking ? My opinion : first : get rid of car, second : adopt a dog :D keeps me walking every day 6 to 7 times a day listening to the birds and watching the trees and flowers around my building. I use a bike when I need to go further or grocery shop as I can put the baskets on the bike to carry them. So I ride a lot. This is most of my physical activity and cardio. My bike costs me 100 euros a year to maintain. I buy a new pair of sneakers 60 euros every other year. Very cheap compared to most other physical activity. On top I do a bit of stretching and yoga for free on my kitchen carpet every time I wait for the kettle to boil or a dish to cook. It also saves time as I haven't much.
I love the yoga in the kitchen idea while waiting for the kettle to boil :)
So true ❤
These are some great tips, Anne-Cecile! Thank you ❤️
I began to love walking when I learned that I couldn't. After my strokes, I had to learn to walk all over again. Something as simple as getting up to walk to the door was impossible. How I yearned to do the simplest movement. Walking became life to me. I used a walker at first, with assistance. I graduated to a walker on wheels and then to a cane. I have been walking now for about eight years, mostly without aid. I walk because I can! Love your thoughtful videos!
As always, you're a wonderful inspiration, dear Betty ❤️Much love!
"If you're in a bad mood, go for a walk. If you're still in a bad mood, go for another walk." Hippocrates In my experience, it works! Thank you for a lovely video.
I love walking! I honestly think it is the best form of getting around. I will always opt to walk rather than a car or even bicycle. It really is a gift we take for granted. Thank you for another beautiful video Ana! Many blessings to you both this week ❤
Really the best kind of exercise/fun for body, mind and spirit!
I walk every day and it’s a habit I’ve done since my early 20s. We have dogs so it motivates us even in bad weather. Exploring our town and trails is great exercise but also great for the mind. When we went to Paris we walked for three days straight. My feet were so sore but I felt like I got to see so much more. It was amazing.
This was a beautiful video to watch. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and encouraging us to find this level of emotional well-being. 🙏❤
Walking has always been my lifeblood. Due to severe osteoarthritis in both knees accompanied by pain with every step, I almost lost my joy in life. Now I will soon get knee prostheses. It's going to be a long and hard road. But I can't wait until I can walk again, without suffering. Thank you, Ana, for giving so much appreciation to such "ordinary" things as walking.💚
Wishing you all the best with your health, my friend. I'm sure you will have so many joyful hours of walking soon ❤️🤗
Walking for physical and mental health. For me I prefer not to listen to anything but my own thoughts and surroundings
Walking is my favorite pastime!!
Love walking long distances. It is like a therapy for me and very enjoyable. 😀
Dear Ana I loved this video the scenery is beautiful. Not having a car makes me walk everyday. Also I started to do an evening walk to reach my goal of 15,000 steps a day. It helps me maintain my weight & yes relaxes & calms the mind ❤
M-F I get up and out the door for a walk before my work day begins. I try to walk at lunchtime as well. My husband and I walk a lot on most weekends. I agree it is a healthy activity. I liked the out-and-about video.
I totally agree!! Walking, especially in nature or in an interesting city, is just my absolute favourite.
I have a small dog and we go walking for about 40 minutes three times each day. I live right on the edge of town and so there are beautiful countryside walks around my home.
Great topic walking is one of my greatest joys, refreshes me and beautiful time on my own to reflect and meditate. I hope you and Brian are doing well.
I love walking so much, even living in Texas when its like walking through hell june-october lol. There’s just so many little things you get to see and experience that you cant from the car. I have so many pics of butterflies, bugs, flowers, and other fun things from walking 😍😍
I love walking.
Beautiful place, indeed. ☀️🌸💛
Wonderful video!
You showed us some lovely areas of Tiblisi. xx
I just met you and I'm happy. It's not easy to see real minimalists. greetings from Turke
I love walking so much that when I get in the car I feel like I'm suffocating. and distances get shorter as we walk.
I started a walking routine a few years ago when my car needed some mechanical work and it was not a good idea to drive it. I work from home and starting my morning with a walk through the neighborhood. It keeps me in the present and I no longer rush into the day. I have met several people in the neighborhood I otherwise would not have if I continued driving everywhere, especially when some of those places are walkable. I've also seen a lot of treasures I otherwise would have missed driving.
Excellent video. Very insightful. Thank you.
I walk about 45 minutes a day because I had an injury 3 years ago and couldn't walk. I never want to go through that again so I keep up with the walking! There is a gym near my house and I do exercise there, but when I finish my set program, I walk laps around the perimeter of the building and that helps me get my time in especially when the weather is bad.
I walk to walk at least one day for week but i have to say walking at (begining at night) is so more refreshing... Even thought i need to walk the day too. I also started to love sunny mornings after being historically avoidant to sunlight but i still love a cloudy day. That's it, i started to love experiencing different flavors different weathers give to me. But even walking is difficult to shut up my spoken mind. At least it helps to me to write texts & poems.
❤🌸🚶♀️ Thanks for the reminder to walk more. 🙏
Another lovely video :) Thank you Ana for your inspiring content 🤍
Thank you for another wonderful video Ana ❤
Use to walk much more. Miss it. I walked a lot to get away from unacceptable neighbours. Finally moved to a much better building but walk less.
Is this Tbilisi? It looks beautiful. I want to visit it now after watching this video. 😁
Hi Patricia! Yes, it's Tbilisi. And if you ever get a chance to visit it, I highly recommend! After seeing many cities and countries, I can say for sure that Tbilisi is uniquely beautiful and it's atmosphere is gorgeous ❤️
Anna, I always love spending some of my Sunday with you. And I can't emphasize enough how important your last point is. My biggest disappointment with my current medical condition is losing the ability to walk for long distances (over 3 miles). It was something I took for granted. So even if you haven't enjoyed walking, go out and do it while you can. Also, please tell us what those wonderful domed brick structures are - the tops of saunas? Ovens?
I'm so sorry for your health challenge, my friend ❤️ Sending you love. As for the dome structires - they are tops of the famous sulphur baths in Tbilisi.
Great topic Ana. Another option could be to join a walking/hiking group. I did that for years and found it very helpful and motivating.
I love your video, it is amazing🤩I like to walk a lot and exploring ...your new town is beautiful and the building are so interesant. All the best to you and Brian.
I have found that having a walking buddy makes it easier to put my shoes on and get outside. Being accountable has been so helpful for me!
Thank you Ana, looking for your videos every week,....
Thank you for your kind presence 🌷
Indeed! Thank you, Ana!
Wonderful and inspiring. Thank you🐇
Have just tried IWT today. Stands for Intermittent Walking Training. Very accessible and as you say, it boost your energy levels, calms the mind and it is free 😊
Thank you Ana, I have been very little active this last year, walking was always my big thing but with quite a bit of depression and leg and feet pain, I had completely abandonned my favourite activity that I had always done over 50 years. If very sad or very happy I did it and always alone. After listening to you in this video, I will put on my headphones tomorrow and give it another try and see what I can manage. Thank you for reminding me.💚
Yay to walking, dear friend! 🌷
Thank you for taking me on the walking tour. I loved it.🌷
If I had such a beautiful place to walk, I would walk a lot more. Is this Tbilisi? X
Walking helps you to see beauty where you probably didn't see it before when you were previously driving by.
Hi Helen! Yes, it's Tbilisi, we're lucky to live here for now.
Bless you!
I love taking walks! No better medicine for the mind, especially if you can go to a nature spot. Every time I go to the forest I don't ever want to come back home :p
Thank you Ana. Yes, I agree walking is great especially for my mind. I was on vacation now and I was walking much more than usual. Now that the weather is going to be better I will also walk a part from my office back home. I can't walk all the 10 kilometers, but a small part is possible. Makes me feel instantly better. Thank you dear Ana. Have a great week 🙏
Thank you, Anita! Wishing you a beautiful week too ❤️
I have been without a car for a year now so am walking to work, the store, etc. It has actually been very beneficial to me. It gets me out in the fresh air and I can clear my head. Moving more really is good for your health 🥰
Dear Ana: I've just finished reading The Winter of Our Discontent, thanks for your recommendation!
Oh, I'm so glad! 🌷
I've been carless for years, and walk everywhere! I'm lucky that my job is only a 7 minute walk, so I can also walk home for lunch everyday. This was a great video that I bet will speak to so many people! 🙏
Love walking it is a wonderful stress reliever and physical activity. Thank you for posting!
So by walking we get to feel big and small at once? Its like a balancing between us and everything. I love your view of things and its humbling.
Another great video Ana have a great day
Thanks Liam, you too!
@@anagoldberg thanks ana
I love walking and walking meditation!
Ana, I hope you’re taking an intentional Sunday video break (5/5), and not experiencing something unpleasant or unplanned this week. Going to walk now…
Thank you for your sweet message ❤️ I had to take a sick leave, but will be back next Sunday.
you are a joy ana. i love sundays bc of you. i'm unable to walk rn & soon i'll be having back surgery, but once i can ill be be "walking" in my wheelchair. it's a blessing & free gift from nature thanks for the reminder you are a grm
Sending you much love and support, dear friend 🌷 I hope the surgery will go perfectly well ❤️
😊😊
🚶♀️ 🚶♂️ ❤
Very good advice
I love walking and used to be able to walk for miles. But about a year ago my hip began to bother me and walking has been very difficult. What I CAN do is dance so I try to do this everyday.
Dancing every day - what a joyful habit! ❤️🌷
"Productivity Bro's" hahahaha

Even though I love bicycling long distances and speeding down winding mountain roads, I have found that simply walking brings me to a restful state of mind. While at University, I would often study while walking. I believe this classifies me as a kinesthetic learner. John in Bethel, Missouri. USA
I hate sport except of walking😄

Wait what? You live in Tbilisi? ^_^ Where are you from"?
I'm sorry: the first few moments of your intro overwhelmed me! Say what? I love You to bits, but this was a word/ thought dumb so fast I could not follow. I hope this not listening to You to finish my thought!. Sorry, but this deep fast divecas an intro was too much, too fast for me. Again: love You to bits.. My life is at a slow pace. So I will give myself a break, save your post and come back later again. Much love to both of You❤
There was nothing wrong with the intro? You can skip the parts you don't like or turn down the timespeed under settings.
