When most people begin exercise programs, they expect some boredom. Smart Walks eliminate boredom because simultaneous mental exercises of the six major neural pathways are introduced with structured mental exercises to practice while walking. This is a more direct approach to strengthening the brain and neural pathways. In addition to increased blood flow from walking bringing more oxygen to your brain, the mental exercises are helping to expand and deepen neural connections for memory, concentration and focus, visualization, rhythm and intellectual capabilities. Mental exercises can almost eliminate physical exercise boredom while increasing the direct benefits of greater blood flow, deeper breathing and more sunlight on neural activity. Brain exercise with physical exercise is the ultimate self-help action!
