For me, walking is mostly all about the emotional and spiritual. The physical part is just gravy. :) And on a day like today when it's cloudy, windy, blustery I sometimes just have to force myself out into it, and I'm always glad I went.
I guess I just do it (most days) without thinking about it too much. I give myself permission to just do a short walk, but then I always go further than I planned. :)
Sometimes giving ourselves permission to only do a little, when we want to do even less, is a help to get ourselves started. Nothing like starting with a low bar . . . "sure I can do at least that little bit!!"

Wonderful! How do you force yourself to go out on those days you really don’t want to?
