Day 9 — Snap a Moment of Rest
Rest is a key ingredient for wellness that many people overlook. Resting your mind and body helps you repair, recharge, and renew your commitment.
Resting can include sitting on a bench mid-walk to take in your surroundings. It can also mean practicing self-care by:
- Binging a TV show
- Enjoying your favorite hobby
- Getting a massage
- Reading at a park or coffee shop
- Spending time with people you love
If you feel guilty slowing down to rest, give yourself some grace — and permission. It’s essential to your health!
Your Action for Your Next Walk
Find a peaceful pause during or after your walk and capture it. Reflect on what you were feeling when you took the photo. In your journal, write down a “caption of calm” that describes the photo.
Join us on day 10: A sneak peek - Reflect on your favorite photos and memories from the challenge.
