💚 Reason #52 to Walk: It can help keep unnecessary worry at bay.

Research has shown that exercise may help the brain better regulate stress and anxiety—not just improve mood in the moment.

Add in fresh air, sunshine, and meaningful conversation, and a simple walk can make a powerful difference. 🌿👟

That’s what Walk with a Doc is all about:
💚 Movement
💚 Conversation
💚 Community

Come walk with us.

We were so excited to kick off a new Walk with a Doc program in Central Ohio this afternoon!

Led by Dr. Kennedy Ovenseri and the Reynoldsburg YMCA, this group will meet on the 3rd Thursday of every month to walk, chat, and learn important health tips. Today’s discussion was on hypertension and simple ways we can lower our blood pressure (like walking!)
