Hey Walkers!

It's that time of day, isn't it? Your brain is threatening to go on strike, and the siren song of the sofa (and maybe a bag of chips) is getting louder by the minute.

I get it. The afternoon slump is real, and my first instinct is usually a nap (but no can do).

But what if, instead of crashing, you could recharge in just 10 minutes?

This isn’t a punishing workout; it’s a quick reset for your body and your brain.

In this 10-minute power break walk, we’re ditching the extra caffeine and going for something that actually works.

Here’s what I’ve got for you on this walk:

• A simple trick to break up the workday and beat the 2 PM brain fog
• Background music with a steady beat to keep you moving
• My ADHD-fueled observations to keep you entertained
• A tip I picked up from Billy Idol, my pretend husband since 1984

If you're tired of feeling like a zombie in the afternoon, this walk’s for you.

P.S. You'll hear a bell halfway through the walk. If you're outside, that's your cue to turn around and head for back.

A quick note: This is an encore presentation of one of my most popular episodes. If you've been feeling completely worn out, this one is for you. (Originally released as Episode 23A on October 30, 2022.)

If you’re feeling exhausted, unmotivated, and wiped out, the reason may surprise you... especially if your doctor says everything is OK.

In this walking workout, we'll talk about why all the tension in your day-to-day life—from the news, from social media, from our never-ending to-do lists—is literally forcing your body to live in a state of constant low-level stress.

And that constant stress will wipe you out. No joke.

This episode features background walking music, a bell at the halfway mark, a few intervals, and some energizing countdowns to get your heart rate up.

Slip on your walking shoes and let's talk about some simple ways to reduce that strain and get your energy back. If you want to feel like your old self again, it's time to go walking and talking with Helen.

Hi Walkers!

Ever have those days when you've just plain run out of reasons to get moving? I hear you. I'm 59, my mind's on vacation half the time, and I've definitely had days when I feel like I just can't get going.

When it comes to finding the motivation to actually get out the door for a walk (or a trip to the gym) on a day when you're running on fumes and just don't feel like it, being connected to an actual reason you're doing it makes all the difference.

In this 13-minute inspiring power walk, we'll cut through the buzzwords (PUH-lease) to discover your personal reason (your "why") that gets you moving.

Here's what I've got for you as I coach you through a walk:

• Why you need a "why" (and it's not some woo-woo thing).
• Loads of prompts to help you develop your own list of reasons to move.
• A steady beat to keep you moving, with my own ADHD-fueled distractions.
• Some challenging but doable intervals to build your strength and stamina.
• Background music to keep you moving.

If you're tired of curling up on the sofa binge-watching Netflix instead of lacing up your sneakers, this one's for you.
