For the longest time I had an easily rigid schedule that involved a yearly hiking regime.
I realized that my mental and physical health was positively affected by keeping a strict regimen of going outside and releasing my physical energy.
After that discovery, I found myself carving out time to take care of my brain and body on a yearly basis. I have realized that the winter season does not agree with me. Going out in brutally cold hot and cold temperatures does not have the same beneficial effect on my brain. In fact, that cold air makes me know adore I’m surviving, rather than going for a relaxing walk, but still, I do not want to break my routine, then on afternoons that the outdoor air temperature is way too low or the wind is brutally cold, I will still go to my favorite hiking place. However, rather than trudging around in knee high snow and bracing against the frosty air, I will just lay in my attractively warm for a while. I can still love the sights and sounds of nature from inside my vehicle. However, I do not have to expose myself to the unpleasant climate 2 hours on end. I can easily chill out in the parking lot and look at the gloriously snowy trees without facing the windchill and falling ice that comes with hiking. Best of all, my car has an amazing onboard heating method that barely requires any fuel at all. The interior of the car is constantly perfectly warm and toasty. My seat heaters do not hurt matters, either. It’s warm air and a warm room, I find that my mental health and physical vitality benefit from just looking at nature, rather than walking in it.
