The advice from Liz O’Riordan is to push ourselves to walk at least 10 minutes every day. I did my best, but because my chemo was in the depths of Winter, I didn’t feel like it. I think a balance between listening to your body and giving it a gentle nudge is the best way. What didn’t help me was that I also have a spinal stenosis/slipped disc, so walking is excruciatingly painful.
Her advice was sound though. On the days I did push myself I did feel mentally better.
