Being Physical Can Help Your Mental
A big thank you to Ramon for being the second guest entry! Thank you so much for being comfortable sharing your story and contributing to our journey of self-discovery.Â

I went on a 10-day backpacking and rock climbing expedition! This was insane! I spent the next 10 days in the wilderness away from the city, with no shower, no technology of any sort, and the landscape is your only bathroom! Oh, by the way, I’m camping out in territory that wild animals such as bears and mountain lions normally occupy. Now I say all that to make a point that my first exposure to nature was a bit extreme also that it is not as scary as it seems. Nonetheless, that did not affect my time there because I enjoyed it every moment of it.
Â
During this time, I was going through a very difficult time because my grandfather had passed away 8 months prior. I was still very much grieving the absence of him and on top of a very important year in my high school career as college was my next step. Stress was definitely at an all-time high for a 16-year-old and this trip was exactly what I needed.
