During the pandemic, daily walks have been a means for me to find sanity, comfort and even joy. Sometimes all three in a day, sometimes just holding tightly to sanity.
I occasionally add a breakfast picnic to the outing, and it's definitely a boost to my well-being. It typically works like this: I pack up my backpack with a very simple breakfast (muffin, scone, etc.), a cup and saucer (maybe two), a thermos of tea and maybe a tablecloth. Then off I go for my walk, ending where I can sit and have a quiet moment.
Even if it's on your patio or front steps, consider giving this a try! Now that many of us are moving into cool weather, don't give up. A hot cup of tea warms my heart and soul.
