Annabel Streets is walking with purpose

Annabel Streets is walking with purpose

At various points in her life, writer and walking enthusiast Annabel Streets has felt a pull towards certain landscapes and wondered if there was a reason for that. In her new book, The Walking Cure: Harness the Life-changing Power of Landscape to Heal, Energise and Inspire, she explores the restorative and healing powers of walking. Jen catches up with Annabel to talk about why we should all be getting outside, the mindblowing new findings about the different benefits of different landscapes, and the many things to love about wandering around a cemetery. The Walking Cure is published by Tonic and is available now. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
