Today we're going to talk about three things that you can combine that become a superpower

when you're feeling stress and you want to lower that.

Welcome to Walking is Fitness.

This is a podcast of action providing a little extra motivation to help you keep that fitness promise you made to yourself.

Hi, I'm Dave. I've been walking for fitness since 2013, averaging about 21,000 steps a day.

I'm walking right now and would love to have you join me for the next 10 minutes.

I don't know if you were paying attention,

but you might have noticed it sounded like I was walking through water. Just a moment ago,

we got some really heavy thunderstorms in the middle of the night. Actually woke me up. It's like,

wow, is it raining that hard? And right now the skies are fairly clear, but some significant puddleage around the area.

And I even put on my trail shoes that have a certain water-resistant component so I can walk through water and my socks

don't get wet, although the water can't be super deep. But I'm going to be dodging some puddles

here as we walk. And you probably can't hear it but right before I started recording I

walked past an area that it's an open field and the frogs are just going crazy

today I couldn't see them but I could hear them it's like the frog chorus of Myrtle Beach is in full-throated glory this morning. At the moment, I'm not even hearing them, but not too far from here. Hey, thanks for joining me. Thanks for walking with me today. Recently, the Wall Street Journal

had an article about stress and what you and I can do to lower that stress level when we

are feeling it. In fact, what the article is talking about is taking three things that in and of themselves can lower

stress and combining them to be this really superpower stress fighter. Once again, I'm not a doctor.

I'm not a psychologist. I'm not a psychologist.

Please don't take what I'm talking about as specific medical advice for you.

This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only if you are feeling stress, chronic stress, or anxiety, please talk to a professional.

Don't take professional advice from this podcast, even if over the next few minutes I use some big words that sound like I know what I'm talking about.
