I am a female 69yrs old and I quit smoking almost 3yrs ago and I started walking and as I walked I was humming and now I hum all the time and don't know I am doing it and would like to stop. How can I quit humming?

Start singing?
Practice breathing exercises while you walk. There are different exercises (including some used by the U.S. Air Force) that can focus your mind on the breathing so that you won't unconsciously hum. One common exercise is to take a breath in for 4 counts, hold it for 4 counts, release it for 4 counts, and keep the air out for 4 counts. I doubt a person could hum while doing that one.
