Self-Care, Self-Esteem, And Hiking

When you prioritize self-care, you're showing yourself love and respect. What better way to practice self-care than by getting out in nature and going for a hike? We talk about the wonders of self-esteem today. 

Let's talk about the amazing benefits of self-care, self-esteem, self-love, and hiking! Taking care of ourselves is so important, and it's not just about physical health, but also mental and emotional well-being. When you prioritize self-care, you're showing yourself love and respect, and that can do wonders for your self-esteem. And what better way to practice self-care than by getting out in nature and going for a hike?

 Hiking is not only a great form of physical activity, but it also allows you to connect with the beauty of the outdoors and clear your mind. The combination of physical activity and being in nature can have a powerful impact on your overall well-being. So, let's lace up our hiking boots and hit the trails, while also showing ourselves some love and care along the way!

As I have mentioned many times before, I am a woman in my 60s who enjoys walking solo. This habit originated many years ago when I used to accompany tourists daily. During my days off, I wanted to have the freedom of not being responsible for other people. That's why, when I relocated from the south to the north of Italy and my health declined, it wasn't difficult for me to choose to walk alone instead of joining hiking groups.

There are several advantages to organizing myself in this way: I can go out whenever I want, walk at a comfortable pace, take breaks every few steps to catch my breath, capture photos, and admire the flowers and plants. If I come across someone on the street, I stop to have a conversation—I enjoy listening to the stories shared by locals. There is no pressure to reach a specific destination—I walk until a certain time and then head back.
