Why Walk Breaks?

• Recharge Your Energy: A short walk can provide an instant energy boost, helping you stay productive and focused throughout the day.
• Mental Clarity: Stepping away from your desk and enjoying some fresh air can clear your mind and reduce stress.
• Social Connection: Walking with others is a great opportunity to connect with colleagues, make new friends, and build a sense of community.
• Improved Health: Regular walks can contribute to better physical fitness and overall health.

A word from Dr. Larson: "We know that walking improves overall health, decreases chronic back pain, improves bone and brain health, improves energy, and it's fun! Bring a friend!"
