Discovering Myself Through Nature Bathing and Hiking in British Columbia
I can’t pinpoint what it was exactly that made me do it. Was I overwhelmed by work? Burned out from the kids? Were my hormones out of balance, and eating too much processed food to compensate? Probably, yes — all of it. I just remember realizing, “I need a restart button.” I needed a place to escape my daily routine, rebuild, refocus, and rediscover who I had become. However, I didn’t want a week of wine and lounging; I needed to clean my body, sweat, strengthen, and most importantly, I needed sleep — so much sleep.
