Walking can lift our mood even when we don't expect it to.
The mere act of putting one foot in front of the other for a few minutes has a significant beneficial impact on our mood, regardless of where we do it, why we do it, or what effect we expect the walk to have.
Fresh air, nature, the satisfaction of reaching fitness goals, and the expectation of the activity being beneficial shows that the simple act of walking, in and of itself, is a powerful mood lifter.
So track your walking in the BetterPoints app to earn rewards and lift your mood.
