🎒🌟 Blue Zones Activate Mead Valley had a blast at the Back to School Bash last weekend!

We loved connecting with families and sharing simple ways to make healthy choices easier as students head into a new school year. From walking to school safely to building purpose-filled routines, we’re excited to support a healthier, happier Mead Valley together.

💙 Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth — let’s make this school year the best one yet!

“If you want to go fast, walk alone; if you want to go far, walk together.” —African proverb

Walking is one of the safest, easiest, and cheapest ways to move naturally throughout the day. Just walking 30 minutes a day can have a big impact on your health and mood. Even though you can walk alone (and we do suggest you walk as much as you can every day!), one of the foundations of blue zones communities around the world is strong social connections. Walking with a buddy or a group integrates both the movement and the social aspect of the Blue Zones life. Research published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine shows people are more likely to walk for recreation or exercise when they are in the company of others or with their pet. Walking and talking is a way to connect while reaping the benefits of moving. Whether you get a walking buddy or join a walking group, the goal is to meet and walk at least once per week (but more often is better).

Besides the healthful aspects of walking, it also helps you to:
• See your neighborhood, town, and city in a new way.
• Explore local parks and trails safely.
• Make new friend and community connections.
