Walking the Mind Into Stillness

“Every day, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, & the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.”

-Soren Kierkegaard

“We should take wandering outdoor walks, so that the mind might be nourished and refreshed by the open air and deep breathing.”

-Seneca

“It is only ideas gained from walking that have any worth.”

-Nietzsche

“It is a paradox that perhaps the single best way to still one’s mind is to put the body in motion.”

-Ryan Holiday
