We walk, regardless of the season, to connect with Mother Nature, to replenish our spirits with the beauty of the Earth. We walk as a reprieve from the busyness of life; to escape from the walls that begin to close in on us. We walk to be healed. We walk to be soothed. We walk when the children need space to roam free and to learn from Nature’s classroom. We walk when we are overwhelmed, to reconnect with that which makes us whole and to find our way back to our rhythm. We walk to remind ourselves we are not alone, but a part of Nature herself, and to receive her medicine to heal us.
