Jennifer graciously shares many of the poignant life experiences that have, in turn, brought her to where she is today.    "Risk is what you take to encounter possibilities." ~Jennifer Walsh We have been impacted negatively by isolation over the past few years. We need connection with one another as well as with ourselves. Nature has a way of calming and healing the soul, bringing us back to ourselves. As quoted in Prevention Magazine, Jennifer shares the following that beautifully summarizes why WALKING is so beneficial. Walking brings wellness "My years of research and studying and becoming an avid practitioner has led me to where I am today. Through my company, Walk With Walsh, I am on a mission to get more people outdoors and to understand the health benefits of spending time in Nature and what happens to us when we are without Nature in our daily lives. Mindful walking, what I like to refer to as Wellness Walks, aren’t getting from point A to point B in a specific amount of time. It is more like yoga for the brain. It is a time to be present in Nature and to activate your senses in a way that you would not get indoors or in a gym. It is slowly walking in Nature and to understand the healing benefits that it has to offer." No matter where you live, Nature is available. Get a house plant, look for trees in your neighborhood or a nearby neighborhood. Discover a nearby water source (fountain, pond, lake, river, ocean). Spending time outdoors allows you to regulate your heart rate, breathing, and spirit! Nature offers an abundance of health benefits!
