Every step is movement and movement is healing

This challenge appeared at the perfect time. Life felt more like trudging through mud. Pretending I’m using that mud for a facial, while in reality, it’s clinging to me like I’m a shoe. That moment when you’re certain you’ve got just a few more steps until land, so you slide off the kayak into the water.. only to feel the mud suction you in (we all know the pain of realising you’ve lost your shoe). Every step an effort. I might have lost a few pieces along the way. Every breath felt just a little too full of everything. I say “felt” as if things have changed but the truth is - the weight is still there. The difference is, I’ve given myself a goal. That goal is to refocus and come back to the now. To walk, to breathe, to notice what’s here instead of what isn’t. Because somewhere along the way, I started losing myself again. Ironically, while trying so hard to ‘find myself’. I was peeling back layers, reflecting, analysing, growing.. Until I realised I was so focused on understanding myself that I stopped being myself. This walk wasn’t planned but when it popped into my world, I knew it was what needed to happen. A way of grounding myself and shining a light on the dark, because shadows don’t have to be suffocation; they can be teachers. It’s not about fixing or figuring it all out, it’s about remembering that even when life feels like mud, movement is still possible. Every step is a reminder that I’m still here and no one should have to walk through the hard parts alone.

One foot forward to better health

This challenge has come at just the right moment for me. Life never runs in a straight line but is rather undulating with up and downs, highs and lows. I’ve run and walked through the highs and lows, and this has helped my mental health so much. sometime it takes all the willpower in the world to get out of bed and put your trainers on, when all you actually want to do is hide under the covers with you dog. And sometimes that’s ok and that’s what you need. But, feeling the sun on your face and the breeze in your hair, can sometimes turn things around 💚
