You can read about Cobblestone Walking on

http://www.ori.org/Media/pressreleases/cobblestone_june05.x.pdf

Of course, you'll need a PDF reader. They are free.

If you really want to push the envelope, then Breathwalk
on a cobblestone street. Try doing it with your eyes
closed. (Thrilling!)

Well my wife's tells me I'm about to go shopping in Guildford High Street so
it's pleasing to know it will give me some benefit.
(for those that don't know it's built up a steep hill and is cobbled)

Go for it!

Dr. Candace Royer, Director of Physical Education at MIT said, "Breathwalk
is a simple but elegant method for altering moods and state of mind. I use
it
in my general walking class at MIT and have found students to be very
receptive to the techniques. Personally, I use the principles almost every
time I walk anywhere, for an exercise or relaxation effect. Quite
sincerely,
it works!"

Best Wishes,

Interesting, I always thought MIT was one of the USA's better educational
establishments. I'm rather surprised you have to teach students how to walk.

I suspect George would agree that it is not rocket science🙂

Flippin' 'eck. First he wants us to breathe while we're walking; now he
wants us to do it on cobblestones. Where can I get platform walking
boots?

LOL! Yeah, the students are intellectuals not athletes. : o )

And rocket science is not science; it's engineering.
BTW, only about half of the students in the class of 2009
are selecting engineering as their major.

Yep, and with your eyes closed. (It's good for certain
parts of your brain responsible for balance.) I also
like to walk backwards--for a different proprioceptive
experience.

So let me get this right, you want me to do rhythmic deep breathing
exercises whilst walk backwards up Guildford High Street on the cobbles with
my eyes shut.
Presumably everyone then bets on when I'm going [censored] over [censored]. :-)
