Have you ever noticed how you always feel better and motivated after you go on a walk? Walking is a form of exercise that releases endorphins, natural chemicals in the brain that promote feelings of pleasure and well-being. 

As a teen in today's society, there is constant pressure and stress to be perfect all of the time, and at some points, the stress builds up so much that it feels like it is too much to handle. Finding an outlet that helps you lower stress and anxiety helps you realize that the problems that were once big are actually manageable. Walking can act as an outlet and can lead to lower stress and anxiety; with every walk you take, you take a step in the right direction.
