Feeling tense? Always taking life a little too seriously? 

This walk is your reminder that relaxation isn’t a luxury — it’s essential.

In this episode of The Healing Mile, we’ll explore how to let go of stress, embrace a little silliness, and discover simple ways to soften your body and mind while you walk.

You’ll learn how to:

 🌿 Release the pressure of perfection and seriousness
 🌿 Use playful tools like skipping, walking backwards, and swinging your arms to relax your body
 🌿 Try the “Spot the Little Things” practice to reset in real time
 🌿 Reframe relaxation as fuel for your nervous system, not laziness
 🌿 Anchor it all with affirmations and a mantra to carry through your week

Relaxation lowers stress hormones, calms your nervous system, boosts creativity, and makes life a whole lot more enjoyable. 

And it can start right here, right now — one step at a time.

✨ Mantra for this walk: “I let go of stress. I embrace the silly. I enjoy my life.”

🎧 Take this walk with me and give yourself permission to relax.
