In this episode, psychotherapist Dr. Audrey Boxwell shares many insights about the healing properties of walking and movement.

Listen to the show while out on a walk or hike!

We have eight mantras from the show:

Mantra #1: Walking is about moving forward and allows you to get unstuck.

Mantra #2: Walking allows you to rewrite your story.


Mantra #3: Walking is an alternative to seated meditation.

Mantra #4: Walking allows the subconscious to surface.


Mantra #5: Walking moves us into Alpha/Theta brain waves states.

Mantra #6: Walking allows us to breathe deeper so that we can go into the parasympathetic mode of our autonomic nervous system.

Mantra #7: Walking unlocks memories.

Mantra #8: Walking allows us to set intentions and then integrate those intentions.
