So my car is unexpectedly in the shop for 24 hours, which has left me with only my feet as a means of transportation.

Breakfast: No Salt Added Cottage Cheese, Raw Almond Butter, Blueberries and Cinnamon with a side of toasted Ezekiel bread.

Perfect fuel for a morning on foot.

While I agree that cars play a major role in today’s hustle and bustle of life, it was liberating to let my feet carry me to my destination, rather than having my car lazily drive me 5 minutes up the road.

When we have legs that work, we need to use them more often.

As a matter of fact, I am always expressing to Matt that when we buy our first home, one of the most important aspects, to me, is that it is in close proximity to the center of town.

I want to walk to the market, the coffee shop, and the adorable boutiques that line the picturesque streets. And the closer, the better.

Whether we live in the city, or a town close to it, having the luxury to choose whether I want to walk, ride, or drive into town is something that I’ve always desired.

Not only will it save money on gas, but walking helps balance out the body and gives you time to reflect.

Make your heart healthy, your mind clear, and your muscles strong.

Remember, a body in motion stays in motion, so start using your legs whenever possible.
