Pole Walking

Having heard that a friend just finished a Parkinson's Boot Camp in Arizona recently where she experienced pole walking and after researching it's benefits for everyone especially with gait and balance for people like me, I decided to get my hiking poles out and give it a whirl for 30 minutes in the neighborhood.  It turned out to be fun and the most immediate benefits were improved sleep, balance, and energy.  I've only been doing it for three days now.  Here is a site that tells about it if you are interested.
