Walkabout
The connection between walking and enhanced creativity has a long history. The philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche (1889) wrote, “All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking”.

Researchers at Stanford recently found that walking outside led to almost 3 times as many creative ideas as sitting indoors.
