Have you ever wondered how all this new technology might actually be hurting your health? Take the automobile, for example—hardly anyone walks anymore. Elevators and escalators have all but eliminated the need to climb stairs. And with artificial intelligence on the rise, even more daily movement may soon be replaced, making the traditional 40-hour work week feel like a relic.
Beware: the more time you spend on the couch, the more your health may suffer.
Think about life a couple of thousand years ago—everybody walked. It’s estimated that Jesus traveled over 15,000 miles during His 33 years on earth. He didn’t have the modern-day distractions like TV, social media, or streaming services.
Spring is in the air. It's the perfect time to add more walking to your day. Start small. Park a little farther from your destination and walk the rest of the way. Take a lap or two around the block.
You might be surprised how much more energy you’ll have once you start moving.
Have a great day—and keep walking.
