50 ways to take a break

I tumbled across this illustration on Facebook and retraced it to Karen Horneffer-Ginter. She's the author of Full Cup, Thirsty Spirit and on her website, she has posted a link to a poster called "50 ways to take a break", which we can buy online.

Here are some of the ways to take a break suggested by Karen, which will be greatly facilitated by using my walking guides Toronto Urban Strolls. (I know... shameless plug...)

• Call a friend

• Walk outside

• Go to a body of water
• Watch the clouds
• Move twice as slowly
• Sit in nature
• Read a book, Read poetry, Write in a journal, Write a quick poem (in one of the café´s along the strolls) 
• Take deep belly laughs (by walking with your friends)
• Meander around town
• Eat a meal in silence
• Turn off all electronics
• Go for a run
• Create your own coffee break
• View some art
• Examine an everyday object with Fresh Eyes
