Motivation of the month EMBRACE WINTER

Popularized in the mid-19th century by Norwegian poet and playwright Henrik Ibsen, the concept of friluftsliv roughly translates to “open-air living,” and is a way of connecting to the natural world. But it’s more than simply an activity; it’s a lifestyle, and best of all, anyone can adopt it. It’s as effortless as going outside and appreciating your surroundings. The feelings related to friluftsliv are found among outdoorsy people all over the world, so get on board and don’t let winter bring you down! As the Scandinavian saying goes, “There’s no bad weather, only bad clothing.”
