Walking for Your Health with Jambu

Ladies, are you walking for your health these days? I have the perfect walking shoe from Jambu to help you get your steps in!

This is a sponsored post with Jambu Footwear, however, all opinions are my own.

As I am writing this post the world has changed overnight. Everything is closing and we are now practicing social distancing to keep ourselves safe from the Coronavirus pandemic. I am no longer going to the gym or playing golf because we need to practice safety precautions of staying 6 feet away from each other but we still need to keep exercising for our health.

Walking for Your Health

One of the simplest forms of exercising is walking during this outbreak. Because you don’t need any equipment just a good pair of walking shoes to get 30 minutes of cardio in every day. One of the nice things about walking is that you don’t need special skills, much less lessons. The main thing is to walk naturally and comfortably. Since this isn’t as strenuous as running for a good cardio workout walking still has many benefits for your health. Getting outside in the sunshine and fresh air helps us stay healthy during this outbreak.

Benefits of Walking for Your Health

Walking improves fitness, cardiac health, alleviates depression and fatigue, improves mood, creates less stress on joints and reduces pain. It is also good for our bone health, reduces the risk for cancer and chronic disease, and improves circulation.

Here’s an old blog post I wrote about Menopause and Heart Disease

The Mental Benefits of Walking

Exercise, including walking, improves your mental health by releasing endorphins which can bring about feelings of euphoria and wellbeing. Going for a walk just makes you feel happier! One study found that just 12 minutes of walking resulted in an increase in joviality, vigor, attentiveness, and self-confidence versus the same time spent sitting

Psychologists found that a 10-minute walk may be just as good as a 45-minute workout when it comes to relieving the symptoms of anxiety. Now more than ever walking may outdoors may be just what the doctor ordered.

You may get some peace of mind knowing that you just did a great workout instead of wasting the time!

Free Spirit Encore

You know when you find a shoe that is comfortable you get another just like it! That’s what I did with the Jambu Free Spirit Encore Vegan shoe!

Just like her sister the Spirit Encore Vegan shoe that I  wore in this post in December, this is an extremely comfortable shoe for walking in. What makes this shoe different is that this shoe is perfect for sailing or wading along the shore! These are water-ready slip-on shoes for women that lets you get your feet wet!

The difference between the shoes is the open sides of the Free Spirit Encore that allows for quick drying when your shoes get wet. And because of the open sides, they manage moisture and odor.

These shoes have the APMA Seal of Acceptance for promoting good foot health and are made with a vegan nubuck upper. Also, they have a non-slip All Terra traction rubber outsole and memory foam insole.

Thank you for stopping by today!

During this uncertainty with the coronavirus outbreak, I hope you know how much I appreciate you stopping by.

The world as we know it has changed, it will be changing again the next time we meet. If you are feeling anxious about the swiftness this pandemic has been escalating in your area, you’re not alone. Many people are experiencing this too.

But we must stay positive and proactive while still keeping to our daily routine of living our best lives now even under these difficult situations. We will adapt to the restrictions of protecting ourselves against the virus and limit our face to face contact but find comfort knowing we can easily see each other on Facebook, Instagram, or Facetime.

I will continue to write about fashion, wellness, travel, and my At Home with Robin series during the coming weeks of our “New Normal”. I hope you enjoy my posts as a break from the daily news.

Sending you love and gratitude,
