The 10-minute walk break

Start small

Set a 10-minute timer. Five minutes out, five minutes back at an easy pace where you can still talk.

Leave the phone in your pocket

Look up. Notice three things you have not seen before.

Time it well

Many people like a short walk after a meal, or as a break between long stretches of sitting.

Build a calmer daily rhythm

Breathing, calming sounds, mood check-ins and a sleep tracker in one private journal. Free, no sign-up, and it stays on your device.

Bring water

Have a glass when you get back.

Listen to your body

Slow down or stop if something hurts or you feel unwell.

If you have a health condition or have been advised to limit activity, check with your clinician about what is right for you.
