    Food for thought... I'm trying to walk more and I really appreciated your lens.

    I try to walk just about every day. My dog & I walk the pastures, and I really enjoy seeing the flowers, plants, and other animals that we come across. Great way to get away from it all, slow down a bit, and just enjoy life!

    I have always found walking to be a meditative activity, especially in the woods. I've learned so much about myself during my long hikes.

    You see so much more when you go walking, and the view changes every time you walk a given route. I find it really relaxing as well as good exercise. Nicely done, blessed and added to my Deer Creek Walk lens, which is about walking around the neighborhood where I used to live in Florida, a walk that I did frequently and used to enjoy a lot.

    A "depth" lens... in time and space... Walking - always the best "escape" for body, soul & mind!

    Walking is wonderful and I love it, but have to admit that I haven't walked much these past few months. I'm glad that summer is almost here and the weather will be great for taking walks.

    I love walking. Gives me time to reflect and to create.

    Really enjoy the lens - and I'm a big fan of nature walking. I currently live near a riverbed trail that has become my new favorite form of exercise.

    Truly good words here, excellent presentation; makes me wish I could go for long walks.

    I will have to give it a try and see how I feel.

    Being in nature is very therapeutic for me in it's simplest form. Great lens.
  • greenspirit Dec 24, 2010 @ 7:02 am | delete
    I attended a mindfulness retreat once, and found myself spending a week in silent walking . Slow walking, fast walking, barefoot on ice and gravel walking, walking at night in the dark, walking at sunrise, just walking. What I learnt and experienced has never left me. I love your lens.
  • Nenkai Oct 28, 2010 @ 6:21 pm | delete
    I so agree with your father about walking in the mountains and feeling closer to God! With the light dappling through the leaves, the fresh smells, the connection to nature, it can be a mighty experience!
  • HSSchulte Oct 20, 2010 @ 9:53 am | delete
    I just love this lens! Motivation to get walking and nature is very therapeutic.
  • charlino Oct 16, 2010 @ 8:18 pm | delete
    Walking is good for the mind, body, and soul. Thank you for putting this lens together.

    I'll be walking in the mountains tomorrow - my first day of vacation. I'm glad I read this.
  • NarrowPathPublishing Oct 7, 2010 @ 12:16 am | delete
    I love this! I revere nature as part of my spiritual walk...now I want to do it as part of my physical walk as well.
  • Intuitive Oct 2, 2010 @ 9:22 am | delete
    I hadn't thought about nature walking in quite these terms before. It's great! A friend of mine just showed me some new shoes with toes in them. They're like walking barefoot only with a tough sole.

    You have really covered LOTS of territory!

    What a beautiful lens! We added green walking to our summertime and the practice has calmed us. Taking a tip from you, we plan to sprinkle our walks with poetic thoughts. Many thanks for your suggestions.

    Walking 30 minutes a day does indeed help a lot with your health, body and mind alike. I am a guide at new york city walking tours now and this is the most beautiful jobs I had.

    Wonderful! Love to walk in the woods and commune with nature...always feel so peaceful.
  • kimmanleyort Jun 3, 2010 @ 7:58 am | delete
    Just got back from my walk in the neighborhood and couldn't agree more with all of the benefits you listed. Walking is a great way to practice being present and you've shown us how to do that.

    There is nothing like a walk in the woods:) Great lens, 5*

    I really did enjoy this. I always find the woods,trails and paths around my home here a most delightful and rewarding experience. This is a rather large lens you have here, so I will enjoy it a lot more through out the week. Kudos to you good doctor on a very informative, enlightening and rewarding lens.

    Nice and very beautifully laid out lens. I would really appreciate it if you visit my Best Outdoors & Nature Books lens and put your views there. Hope you will take out some time to rate it too.

    Great lens. I've always found walking therapeutic and recently conquered my fear of heights by walking up mount Snowdon in Wales. I created a lens about the experience. Please check it out if you have a chance. I will lensroll this lens with mine.

    Excellent site, I've been poking around squidoo quite a but and I don't think I've seen so much useful info on one lens yet. :)

    Great Lens!!!
    "do more good for an unhappy adult than all the medicine in the world".
    It is true, I think more people need to know the miralces of Walking. It even helps in Overcoming Depression .

    Great idea for a lens, though I cannot imagine buying shoes online... That's perhaps just me...

    A 5 star lens if I ever saw one.

    What a wonderfully peaceful lens!

    A Fairy Tale Wolf was checking out your lens and liked it so well that he is sending you a virtual cup of coffee to hang on your wall.
