Student story: Discovering wellness through postprandial walks
|
|
This story by Lasantha Ranwala Arachchige Don, a Doctor of Philosophy (Pharmacy and Medical Science) student, is a delightful meditation on the joys of walking, so much so that it became the highlight of our wellbeing tip corner this week. Below is an excerpt:
“Imagine this: You’ve just had a hearty meal, and suddenly you’re hit by the notorious sleepy spell or a food coma. You could either succumb to the urge to nap or take a walk. I chose the latter. As I wandered around like a lone wolf, I bumped into my colleague from Ethiopia who was doing the exact same thing!
Here’s
the beauty of it: our walks aren’t just about shedding those extra calories; they’re about bonding and making memories. We’ve laughed at seeing the invisible at the Adelaide Botanical Garden (if you still don’t know this, then rush to the garden with your mobile phone to experience augmented reality), swapped cultural anecdotes, and even debated our local pronunciation of English.
So, dear fellow students, the next time you find yourself battling a post-meal siesta, remember the postprandial walk option. Not only will it save you from a sleepy spell, but it might also lead you to unexpected friendships and hilarious adventures.”
