The outdoors is where I am most at home, it is where I find ideas, comfort, awe, creativity, challenges, wisdom, community — all of the elements that remind me of who I am beyond societal labels and titles. So I decided that no matter what I was going to get outside and go for a walk.

In Do Walk, I reveal how walking each day provides the time and space to reconnect with the world around us; process thoughts; improve our physical wellbeing; and unlock creativity. This inspiring and reflective guide is an invitation to step outside, and see where the path takes us.

In Do Walk, Libby outlines the process of starting this daily practice for ourselves, the benefits of walking, and reflections from famous figures – decorated with her journal entries, self-deprecating humor, and her breathtaking photography.

I had no idea the impact a simple, gentle walk would have on my life. The impact comes not only from the actual physical walking but also from the discipline, the practice, the commitment. This MorningWalk has ignited my sense of curiosity, satiated my everlasting wanderlust and been the most powerful tool for inspiration in my life.

I started walking, every morning, 9 years ago and haven’t stopped. Walking, for me, has been my way back to myself, a practice that brings me home. This radically simple act, a morning walk, has become a daily ritual that has transformed my life.
