Walk backward for 10 steps
Por qué este hábito ayuda
Retro-walking engages underused muscles and brain pathways, improving proprioception and cognitive flexibility.
The novelty forces full presence—you can't walk backward on autopilot.

- Boosts spatial awareness skills
- Engages rarely-used leg muscles
- Feels playfully disorienting
- May improve memory recall

Resumen rápido
Traditional Chinese medicine has used backward walking for centuries. Modern studies show it burns more calories than forward walking at the same speed.
The slight challenge triggers neurogenesis—like giving your brain a new puzzle.

I started doing 10 backward steps every time I take out the trash. At first I felt silly, but now I crave that brief moment of seeing my familiar yard from a new angle. My knees thank me too!
