National Take a Walk in the Park Day

Enjoying the outdoors, surrounded by nature's beauty, strolling through serene green spaces, and basking in the tranquility of it all.

When cities are being designed one of the primary things they ensure to make space for is city parks. From small parks the size of just a couple of blocks to large ones that cover acres of land, city planners know the importance of providing green areas for people to go.

National Take a Walk in the Park Day celebrates these small excursions and the differences they can make to our mental, physical, and emotional health.

History of National Take a Walk in the Park Day

This day was founded to help people reconnect with the wilder spaces within our civilized world. Thousands of people all over the country walk in local parks, exploring the wildlife and beauty of the natural world around them.

During these walks many opt to bring cameras so they can take pictures of the beauty they find, others opt to bring a book and enjoy the peace of the natural space. Jogging, playing games, drawing pictures from nature, all of these are things people do when they go out and enjoy time in the park.

Getting out into nature has been proven to have a number of therapeutic effects on those who take the time to do it. Their stress levels go down, their heart and mind feel refreshed, their creativity gets inspired, and they become more productive at work. All of this doesn’t even include the physical health benefits they get from walking in the park.

Keeping our bodies in motion and remaining active are important parts of our long term health. Daily walks help keep joints healthy, our muscles limber, and our hearts beating steadily. Every day you walk walking gets to be just a little bit easier and you’ll find yourself less tired than the day before. National Take a Walk in the Park Day encourages you to get out and do that, every day of the year.

How To Celebrate National Take a Walk in the Park Day

Celebrating this holiday is as simple as doing what it says on the tin, go take a walk in the park! Everyday people take walks as an easy way to get exercise and reconnect with nature, and that’s been proven to have a positive effect on our sense of well-being.

Taking a walk can relieve stress, ease worries, and otherwise make every day just a little bit better. If you’re lucky enough to have multiple parks in your area, why not try a new one every day! While you’re at it, bring a friend!

Both illustrations for chapter 2 of my Lake District fic Easy Scrambling. The chapter is finally, finally finished and with my beta now. I expect to post it later this week.

Since it has been ... uhm ... years since the first chapter was posted, it might be a good idea to reread it, and also the first two installments of the series, The Summer Boy and Underground Rescue.

summer had rolled into Brighton Falls ‘hot! Too hot!’ everyone was inside with the AC on “Hey Bee, how about we go fight off the heat?” ‘Where are we going?’ except for a girl and her car “Let's have some Watson style summer fun!” *Summer music plays* —

Lineart of one of two illustrations for chapter 2 of my Lake District fic Easy Scrambling. The second chapter is – finally – finished (still needs editing and betaing). My sincere apologies to all those who read chapter 1 when it was posted 2 1/2 years ago and have been waiting for an update ever since. It’s coming at last.

For those who haven’t read the first two stories in the series, The Summer Boy and Underground Rescue, now might be a good time.
