What Hiking Does to the Brain is Pretty Amazing<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Do you want to clear your head, become more creative, boost your focus, charge your mind’s batteries, and feel better about yourself?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All I can say about the science of walking is what I know and experience for myself.\u00a0 It is a time of reflection, prayer, and planning but what I most often experience is a realignment or an adjustment of who I am deep inside with what I am doing intentionally in my life.\u00a0 Many times I just get into the “zone.”\u00a0 After six hours of walking I ask myself, “What did I think about or what conclusions did I discover?<\/em><\/strong>”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I find it difficult to articulate anything.\u00a0 However, it is much easier to get on with life.\u00a0 Issues that were a stressor are no longer particularly challenging.\u00a0 I am re-energized.\u00a0 The internal sub-conscious clock has been reprogrammed.\u00a0 My body feels better, it may hurt and ache, but the blood is flowing, the muscles feel used, the heart is inspired and so is my brain.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Spring is here and summer is almost upon us. Do you need any other reason to join me on the trail than this? Send me an email at lou@businessconnectworld.com or click here<\/a> to find out more about why I am hiking the North Country Trail and how you can get involved today. I hope to hear from you soon!<\/p>\n
