Dr Chan highlights 10 Health Benefits of Walking Every day

[@heatherleavitt570]

Walking changed my life! I am almost 60 and have been walking daily for years and years. I would not be the woman I am without this committment to mind, body and soul.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Yeah, a Daily Walking Habit is Powerful medicine for the Mind, Body & Soul indeed

[@oinambobby3774]

My wife had diagnosed Lymphoma,(cancer 4stage) in October 2018. She had been given 13 chemotherapy as well as 25 3dcrt radiation at Tata memorial hospital, Mumbai and B Barua hospital Guwahati respectively. The treatment took around 8 months. Since then she has started at least 1hour morning walk everyday with me till today. My experienced is that regular walking made her a healthy person physically and mentally.

[@rereandersson8889]

This is so on point. I live in a village by the forest in Sweden, I go for a walk in the forest everyday with my dog. We spend around 30 min to 1 hour daily. It makes me feel very happy and content.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

That is why I always tell people, including and especially my patients, that a habit of going for walks daily is a 'Superpower', a powerful medicine. How I wish I live near a forest like you, so I travel 15 mins to forested area at a nature reserve / reservoir for my daily walks.

[@richardwalch17]

I am 73 & I power walk 6 to 10 miles a day!!! I started slow at first & worked my way up to what I’m doing now!!! I do the power walk 6 days a week!!! I love it!!!

[@duncanhill3953]

Live in Sweden walk every day by the sea. 14500 kilometres in the last two years. Buy a dog and get going

[@Retiredmco]

Absolutely 🤗 spot on Doctor!! Over last 14 months I've lost over 70 pounds. Just started at 10000 steps daily. Now up to over 20000 steps daily.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Keep it up!

[@Retiredmco]

@@TheHabitsDoctor Thanks 😊 again 😊

[@pamjaguessur5707]

After suffering from mild heart attack and feeling unwell for afew months i started going for daily walk 2 times per day for half an hour each. I cured myself with out medication and am enjoying good health now .Thanks alot doctor for video contents it's very true.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Great to know! Really happy for you! Continue to work closely with your doctor to optimise your lifestyle for health. Blessings, Dr Chan

[@jordanboyd306]

Walking is the best of all exercises

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Good for the body, mind and soul 🙂

[@QuadiePoo]

I understand it’s hard getting into exercising but if you grit and bear it a couple weeks, it really gets ingrained into your routine and you begin to feel weird if you ever miss a gym day or a walk. I work out every day and then do a 2-4 mile walk depending on my mood for the day. Any day I ever miss, whether something comes up, or inclement weather, I always feel kinda weird. Love my walks with music. It’s definitely my me-time

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Yes, the breakthrough comes when it becomes so much a part of you that you miss it when you skip it

[@cathysunshine4445]

An excellent relevant video. Anyone can walk and the benefits are amazing. My doctor told me it would be beneficial to start walking each day. My mood picked up and being in nature was fun. He said 30 minutes at a minimum but try to do it each day. Lost weight was an extra benefit as I was happier walking.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

A Habit of Walking Every Day is Powerful Medicine! I've been doing livestream on my TT account everyday during my daily morning walk to Walk the Talk and Talk whilst I walk. Cheers

[@16chelonia]

I do walks at home (youtube videos) for at least 20 mins everyday and really noticed the difference in how i feel. Stamina has improved and i lost some weight too.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Great, keep it up!

[@frankstar3417]

Thank you Dr Chan. You are right, all the things you say have happened to me after walking. I didn't know about cardiovascular health, that's good to know. Thanks for your good work.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Glad to know!

[@Starlight12120]

I go for a walk everyday for 1-2 hours , and it's really beneficial, as a student it's also helpful for good retention!!❤❤

[@dlkm101]

When I am down I will go for walk and that really helped me overcome.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Glad to hear, walking certainly helps both the body and mind. Blessings, Dr Chan

[@johnmcaulay5938]

I walk 20-25000 steps every day. And I feel good doing it.

Great video. I plan on getting one of those under-the-desk treadmills on Black Friday and walking daily on it as I listen/watch podcasts or something. I won't walk outside due to safety concerns but hope to move to one of those gated communities where I will feel safe and join a walking club or something. I'm looking forward to the benefits

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Delighted to hear that. Let's encourage one another to move more. Cheers

[@wem-c9f]

I started walking plus brisk walking few weeks ago and wow I feel so good… calf muscles are so good now, lost some arm fats and don’t feel tired upon waking up and don’t need anymore naps. Love it!!! Will make sure I stay disciplined on this! If it is too cold use walking routine videos from home on KZbin. It gets very cold and gloomy here in winter so I am doing that. Plus walking outdoors where it’s not always flat grounds, with up and down the sloped paths can do us more harm than good cos our knees ligaments tendons etc can be injured.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Keep it up! Work closely with your doctor, if any and if necessary to keep it safe too. Blessings, Dr Chan

[@markg.3214]

Great practical advice Dr. Chan. Everyone knows walking is good for them, but most people don't know all of these benefits, which will hopefully motivate more people to walk regularly. Whenever I'm very stressed and anxious, walking always makes me feel better, more relaxed and a more positive mood after. I need to walk more, it's difficult here in Canada in the winter as it's freezing.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Stress and anxiety are slow poison, whilst a cheerful heart is great medicine, and walking helps reduce stress and anxiety, so keep walking!

[@zamin_ali]

Great advice, thank you.

[@tristar2835]

i walk 1 hour daily for two weeks now i feel strong and healthy .i also remove rice,bread ,pasta and other unhealthy carbs . i already lose 3 lbs

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

👍👍👍

[@johnstaunton4512]

I am 68 years old and have been a competitive runner in my youth and even a Masters competitive runner until 10 years ago. I stopped because it became a strain to race and I was not enjoying it. For the past several years I have jogged three to four days a week for about twenty minutes at a time. I have even done 4 Park runs in the last few years however the last one I did was 10 months ago and I found this too gruelling and haven't been back. I have a goal to return to Park run and enjoy it. I have tried to lose weight over the years but have been unsuccessful and am 5 kilos overweight. The reason for my comments is that for the last two days I have gone for 30 minute walks and afterwards felt terrific. It has been a while since I have had that "endorphins" type feeling. As well, I slept really well last night. Sleep is important to me since I have Bipolar. The upshot is that today I resolve to walk 30 minutes every day and I want to put this resolve out there to show I am committed. By the way, thanks Dr Chan for your excellent video.

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

Yes, walking, often wrongly seen by many as 'inferior' an exercise compared to more vigorous activities like running, swimming or cycling, can be powerful medicine indeed for the mind, body and soul, especially when one is able to do so daily or at least regularly. Glad that you have 'discovered' the power of a daily walking habit 👍

[@cadlac1533]

Thanks. How about swimming? ❤❤

I have severe lower joint damage and can't even walk to the nearest bus stop; I'm lucky to be able to walk out to the mail box.

Thank you, Dr. Chan., I clean houses 4 hours a day, 4 days a week. Is that a substitute for walking? After a long illness I would like to get back into walking on my days off. I am wondering if I still need to do on the days that I clean houses. Also, I'm turning age 65 soon. Thank you!

[@Prince-ew4ch]

After dinner I walk 1 hour daily

[@all4lees22]

Hi doc, thanks so much for your wonderful sharing. I truly benefitted a lot from your videos ! May I check with you is the following a good routine for a 50 yr old ? Mon to Thur - 5 km Brisk walk with speed of ard 6.5km/h with 3kg ankle weight Sat & Sun - 8 km casual walk with ankle weight Thanks ! 🙂

[@TheHabitsDoctor]

An exercise routine should be both health promoting as well as safe, so it is important to work closely with your doctor to make sure that your exercise routine is good and safe at the same time.

[@worldchanges10]

Yeah I push myself every morning

[@shirleymut]

I have walked every day most of my life & currently, I walk my dogs at least 1 hour+
