Many
of us rarely take the time to enjoy the true colours, shapes, textures and fragrances
Mother Nature has to offer us. "A Stroll in The Park", is a mini-holiday
away from the noise, rush and pollution of the city.
In addition
to stimulating our own natural senses, "A Stroll in
The Park" attempts to increase a sense of personal
health and well being. Statistics Canada lists walking as
the nation's favourite recreational activity. Approximately
60 per cent of Canadians go walking for health and fitness.
Dr. Martin Roscoe of St. Joseph's
Health Centre agrees and believes that, "higher levels
of injuries occur in more vigorous sports." He states,
many people suffer from, "overuse syndrome", such
as tendinitis and bursitis.
Not
only is walking physically beneficial, but it is also the
"best" form of exercise to release unwanted tension
buildup. Even activities such as golf and tennis cannot
compare to the benefits of walking. No game has the essential,
tension-releasing pattern of continuous, vital, rhythmic
motion. Walking truly is the best antidote for our stressful
lives.
In
"A Stroll in The Park" you can relax and leave your daily stress behind.
Everyone can get in touch with themselves in a natural way by observing and absorbing
the beautiful surroundings of nature. It is easy to feel comfortable and completely
free. This down-to-earth quality tends to naturally attract others. "A
Stroll in The Park" is for single nature lovers. It's an inexpensive and
healthy alternative to bars, working out in the gym or sitting around getting
bored. The absolutely
natural, serene setting of "A Stroll in The Park" is the perfect environment
for people to relax and become acquainted. Each outing will bring new faces and
each season challenges us to a new and exhilarating adventure! So come on out
and try something different! Hope to see you there! Sincerely, Christa
Kroboth Founder
