Feel like the walls are closing in?
Think outside; no box required
The world is under a great deal of stress. No matter who you are or what your life was like, it was altered in some of way.
With reduced structure in your day, you may find yourself eating more than you need to. Stress can begin to affect appetite and waistline, but you can forestall further weight gain by getting outside and staying active.
Exercise increases your overall health and your sense of well-being, which puts more pep in your step every day. Look into the ways your body benefits from exercise when stressed.
During the chaos, finding that place to quiet your mind and think is critical. Nature offers a way to find some of that silence and clarity. Throw on your backpack and explore. The forest will whip you into shape while you sweat out your stress. Inhaling the fresh air and observing nature will help you forget about your problems.
Keep in mind, it’s critical to continue with the mandated safety precautions while on your hike. Whether that’s wearing a mask or going at a time where you can remain 6 feet apart at all times, it is important to start hiking. If you are not comfortable resuming activity outdoors, you can hike trails virtually.
Nature and its paths are endless.
I have always been passionate about hiking. From my experience, simply getting outside and seeing the world from different perspectives will boost your mood. Having a few hours to yourself while listening to the sound of nature, hiking will allow you to escape from reality. Resuming your day with a clear mind is important, especially during a time like this.
Give your day meaning and purpose. Go out and explore the world!
