Walking 30 minutes a day may not seem like that much exercise. But trust me, when you create a consistent routine, it can be enough to stay fit and reap the mental health benefits of movement.

Often when we talk about exercise, it's all about doing more - more miles, reps, and sessions every week. No matter the reason behind the workout, many of us find that once we start doing something, we feel the need to do more. Stepping back and focusing on doing less can benefit our mental and physical health and encourage us to think differently about how we exercise for good.
