The Self Care Series: The Underrated Power of Walking: A Conversation with Carolyn Cohen
Manage episode 410144183 series 2795085
If you are finding it hard to fit exercise into your busy life, maybe you are overcomplicating things and engaging in all-or-none thinking. But, in spite of what you’ve heard, or what your mind is telling you, walking just might be the perfect way to become more active, has the lowest barrier to entry, and requires the least equipment.
In this episode of the Self-Care Series, we are talking about the benefits of movement, specifically walking. Our guest is Carolyn Cohen, host of the Wellness While Walking podcast and functional medicine health coach. Her podcast is meant to be listened to while you are walking, so Carolyn really walks her talk (pun intended.)
For Carolyn, walking is not just a way of moving from one point to another; it is an intimate part of the human experience, a bridge that connects us to our past and opens up paths to our futures.
The slogan “Sitting is the New Smoking” exists because most of us are considered sedentary, and the benefits of walking to our bodies, minds, and brains are almost too numerous to count.

Are you loving this Self-Care Series? Want to hear more content like this on the podcast? I need to hear from you!
Don’t even think you can fit walking into your busy life because your business is sucking up all of your time and energy? Have you considered working with a business coach who is also a licensed psychotherapist and has ADHD, just like you?
I am opening up opportunities to work with me for different lengths of time, based on your needs, goals, and what’s got you feeling stuck.
It starts with a no-obligation free consultation. I help you figure out why your business is not yet where you want it to be, and create a plan that takes mental wellness and energetic capacity into account. I call it “right-sizing” and it might be exactly what you need right now if you know you’re doing too much, but don’t know what to let go of.
