Take a silent walk … When you go out for a walk, do you always have your earbuds in? You may want to leave them at home next time. Silent walking is a new trend that involves walking without any distractions. Think of it as a walking meditation. You are tuned into your thoughts and what’s around you rather than music, a podcast, a phone call – or whatever else you typically listen to on a walk. “Silent walking is an easy way to disconnect from all the noise and chaos that is part of our busy world,” NY-based clinical psychologist Dr. Juanita Guerra told Today. “It’s an excellent way to connect to our core selves.”
