As with other types of exercise, walking is good for both your physical health and your mental health. Studies have suggested it can improve your mood, reduce stress and provide mental and emotional satisfaction. Scientists think that exercise causes the release of particular hormones (chemicals produced naturally by your body) called endorphins. These may create a natural high bringing about changes in your body that make you feel better and happier.
