• Taking time to breathe

• Finding your rhythm

• Being aware of your surroundings ­

• Long-distance walking

• Walking with others

• Walking by night, by rivers and canals, and exploring the city

From a gentle daily stroll to a brisk hike across the mountaintops, this is a powerful reading companion for rural and urban walker alike.
