A guided journal for walkers who want to expand their physical and creative worlds through acts of mindfulness. "Beautifully designed . . . I'd like to give a copy of this smart, fetching book to everyone I know."--Susannah Felts, BookPage Afoot and Lighthearted will teach readers how to harness the power of walking to cultivate and nourish attention, inspiration, and determination, as well as to combat distraction, anxiety, and the dreaded creative block.

WALKING tours are popularly supposed to be feasible chiefly for those to whom this method of travel is incidental to their occupation-timber cruisers, landlookers, prospectors, game wardens and trappers of the North-men who daily match themselves against the forces of Nature. To the average city man rarely does it occur that by substituting walking, our most natural means of locomotion-even if carried no farther than the daily to and from business trip-for the rapid transportation perfected in our modern industrial life he can attain better business efficiency and an increased physical and mental well being.
