20 min walk outside

Why this matters
Why bother?
Natural light in the morning sets your circadian rhythm — better sleep that night. Walking in nature lowers cortisol more than indoor exercise. Free and proven.
How often
Daily if you can; 5x week is still a win.
Best time: Morning sunlight (within 1 hour of waking) is the single most underrated health intervention. 10 minutes is enough.
Pro tip
Combine with the dog walk, the commute, or a phone call. Multitasking that actually works.
Common mistake
Waiting for perfect weather — jacket exists.
What happens if you skip
Vitamin D deficiency, disrupted sleep, worse mood — especially in winter.
