Interestelar Twalking Habits (2023)

Clinical evidence shows that walking 20 minutes a day reduces your risk of serious illness including coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis, dementia, COPD, stroke and cancer, and you will actually lower your risk of an early death by up to 30%. Walking can also boost self-esteem, lift your mood, improve sleep and reduce the risk of dementia, stress and clinical depression.

Limited spaces available
