Mountain Adventures
Walking. In amazing places with awesome people. I’m on a journey to international mountain leader status and happy to take you with me!
So what does the outdoors, what does running, what does walking in the outdoors show me?
That everything is okay.
When you pause, stop and think think, take in all the surroundings, feel yourself in a setting, see yourself the size you really are, let the eyes wander, let the mind wander, let the senses wander….What Can You Hear? What can you smell? Is it warm on your skin? Is it windy?
Here in the mountains there’s no end of things to take your attention and by getting drawn outside of yourself by connecting with the wider world your worries and your problems, that constant think or overthink dissolves, evaporates, it’s gone.
“We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.“
Mahatma Gandhi
