  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Go for a Daily Walk Outside
    Fresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?

    Today was a big hike in a national park. I’m so thankful for unspoiled places to get close to nature.

    It was such a rainy day today I couldn't do an outside walk.  Anyone have good tips to still get outside when the weather is so wet?

      This is often a challenge in the pacific northwest... sometimes you just have to put on a rainjacket and go for it. Other times, it may be an inside walk and just a few minutes outside between rain showers ;)
