In commemoration of this day, here follows &#8230;<br \/>\n<strong>&#8230; The Benefits of Walking by Janice Taylo<\/strong>r<br \/>\n(excerpt from her best-selling book, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/0142005088\/beliefnet\">Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a>: Miraculous and Motivational Musings from the Patron Saint of Permanent Fat Removal)<br \/>\nFrom stress reduction to less incidence of cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, the benefits of walking are amazing!  Some even say walking relieves constipation and helps cure impotence.<br \/>\nWalking stimulates the brain release endorphins and increases the production of the neurotransmitter serotonin, the body&#8217;s natural mood elevator.  Literally, walking makes us happy.<br \/>\nWalking gives us the biggest bang for our buck; it is the simplest and easiest way to exercise for most people.<br \/>\nThomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence and third president of the United States, believed that &#8220;of all exercises, walking is the best.&#8221;<br \/>\nIt seems our patriotic duty is to walk!<br \/>\nHere are a few ideas from Our Lady of Weight Loss on how to increase your daily steps.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Get off the bus or subway one stop earlier than usual.\n<li>Park your car at the far end of the mall.\n<li>Dust and\/or vacuum your home during commercials (especially during the food commercials!).\n<li>Take the stairs instead of the elevator.\n<li>Get up and go visit coworkers.  Resist the urge to use the intercom or email.\n<li>Pick up lunch instead of ordering out.\n<li>Walk your neighbor&#8217;s dog (He&#8217;ll like you for it!).\n<li>Wear a pedometer! It will keep you honest and you can compete against yourself daily!<br \/>\n<strong>faToid:<\/strong>  Do your thighs rub together as you walk, creating a bit of chafing irritation? Don&#8217;t sweat it.  You&#8217;re not alone.  Try sprinkling a bit of powder on those prime meat spots and wear loose, comfortable clothing!<br \/>\n<strong>For more healthy tips<\/strong>:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/ourladyofweightloss\/2009\/02\/ten-recession-stress-busters.html\">Recession Proof Your Life:<\/a> Stress Busters<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/ourladyofweightloss\/2009\/03\/mt-redoubt-is-your-inner-volca.html\">Is Your Inner Volcano Erupting<\/a>?<br \/>\n<em>Spread the word &#8230; NOT the icing,<br \/>\nJanice<\/em><br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\">Janice Taylor is a Life &amp; Wellness Coach, specializing in weight loss, reinvention, transformation &amp; happiness<\/a>, author, seminar leader and 50-pound-BIG-Time-LOSER!  <a href=\"mailto:janice@ourladyofweightloss.com\">Write Janice<\/a> for an Introductory Coaching Session.<br \/>\nFor more motivation and inspiration, join the <a href=\"http:\/\/community.beliefnet.com\/kick_in_the_tush_club\">Kick in the Tush Club<\/a>: Beliefnet Chapter.<br \/>\nPick up a copy of Janice&#8217;s latest: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/All-Forgiven-Move-Fat-Burning-Sveltesville\/dp\/014200524X\/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1197052667&amp;sr=1-1\">All Is Forgiven, Move ON ~ Our Lady of Weight Loss&#8217;s 101 Fat-Burning Steps on Your Journey to Sveltesville<\/a>!<br \/>\n<em>&#8220;Janice Taylor is a certain kind of kooky genius ~ see if her idiosyncratic diet plan will work for you.&#8221; ~ O, The Oprah Magazine<\/em><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\/motivation\/coach.asp\"><span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"ART heart.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/100\/import\/ART%20heart.jpg\" width=\"34\" height=\"34\" class=\"mt-image-left\" \/><\/span> <\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ourladyofweightloss.com\/motivation\/coach.asp\"> about Janice<\/a><br \/>\nFollow Janice on <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/OurLady\">Twitter<\/a>:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/home.php#\/profile.php?sid=d82081eb96fa8033ec096ad6ccfd2b0a&amp;id=557881698&amp;hiq=janice%2Ctaylor\">Facebook<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is National Walking Day.
