Solvitur ambulando

"Solvitur ambulando" is a Latin phrase that means "It is solved by walking". It means that sometimes you can find a solution to a problem or confusion by simply taking a walk.

Imagine you have a difficult puzzle to solve, but every time you sit down to work on it, you just can't figure it out. Instead of getting frustrated, you go for a walk. As you walk, you start to clear your mind and see things from a different angle. Suddenly, the pieces of the puzzle come together in your mind and you find the solution.

So, "solvitur ambulando" means that sometimes the best way to figure something out is to take some time away from the problem and just go for a walk to clear your mind.
