ADELAIDE DANIELS The Wonderful Society of Walkers Let me introduce a distinguished and rapidly growing society: the walkers. They are anonymous, unorganized, without a constitution or by-laws. Some have a favourite daily walk ; some will walk anywhere, any time. Most walkers are sociable people who would like company. But a walking companion is not easy to find. Most friends will come to dinner, parties and stay up until any hour, but few will go walking -- unless there is a destination in mind. All walkers, whether they are on a diet or not, should begin by prac- ticing good nutrition. Eating the right foods which contain maximum nutrients with minimum calories is the key to a slim and healthy life. By starting good nutritional habits, we can begin to change what we eat and when we eat, in order to maintain ideal weight and keep fit. It is important that we eat regularly and to the point of being sated. If you are on your way to your ideal weight, but you sometimes feel discouraged and depressed, go for a walk. Put on your most com- fortable shoes. Walk with your head up, take long steps, let your arms swing freely and easily, and deepen your breathing. Keep a good rhythm, not necessarily fast but steady. See how your mood changes, how the dark colour of your thoughts becomes gradually brighter. Low spirits will not accompany you very far on a good walk. Psychologists remind us again and again that the mind cannot re- main depressed when the body is in motion. Walking preserves health and lengthens life. It relieves tensions, insomnia, chronic fatigue and a host of minor physical and mental complaints that drag down the spirit and body and take the joy out of living. Free-striding, free-swinging, rhythmic, unhurried and unharried walking is the perfect aid to digestion, elimination, circulation and relaxation of mind, body and spirit. Believe me, walking can do all these things for you, and furthermore it is a very special pleasure. Why not make it part of your daily routine? Join the walking society today and see what a difference it makes in your life!
