  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I hope you have a lovely hike! ☺️ I need to get back to going on my walk consistently every day again

I wouldn’t last long if I tried for a daily regimen, I’d fail so hard by maybe Saturday of week 1

For me, it’s 1-2 times a week for 3-6 mile day hikes. Gives me something to look forward to later which is important because it’s mildly addictive to get out and away from concrete and people. I savor it more when structured like that and it’s easier to keep the habit going.

Not to say one habit is better or whatever. But maybe if daily isn’t sustainable for you, mix it up

Most places you can hike aren't open when I'm awake due to a sleep disorder (I'm only awake at night), so for me small daily walks work best. I don't have very far I can go unless I wanna drive somewhere like a closed shopping center, so I usually walk 15-45 minutes (one loop around my complex is 15min, usually I do one or two loops)

For me the benefit is less getting away from other people, my sleep schedule is very isolating so I have plenty of alone time 😅. But it's good to get out of my head and move my body for a while :)
