4 STEPS TO MOUNTAIN WELLBEING

-

TAKE A PAUSE

We’re so focused on the destinatio­n that we forget to stop. Sit and pay attention to your sensory experience. Notice your breathing, sounds, scents, colours, shapes and movement. How does it feel to be part of the landscape?

ENJOY THE CLIMB

Getting to the summit is an amazing feeling – but what about the journey? Take time to notice what’s around you. Walk as if you were a child, taking it all in for the first time.

WATCH FOR WILDLIFE

Be curious about other life forms. You can either set off with a wildlife guide or simply enjoy wondering: What might their experience of the world be? How might they be perceiving you? What might their lives up in the hills be like?

SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE

Towering peaks can be a source of inspiratio­n connecting us with a sense of possibilit­y. How do you feel in the mountains? How do they inspire you? What’s your personal experience? Share it with friends, write about it on a blog or simply enjoy it for yourself.
