This morning brought the reminder that nothing lasts forever and that the cold wind can blow strong & fierce. Last year, I decided to be like a Scandinavian and embrace a positive wintertime mindset so that I would have a better well -being. Well, what did that look like...walking each day with my furry companion, where I went outside without checking the weather but instead bundled up and simply breathed in the crisp cool air. My favorite days were those where the snow sparkled and crunched under clear blue skies with full sun in action. I weathered last winter very well. And I look forward to engaging again in “friluftsliv” (Norweigen for open air life). Get outside, wear a smile, and work on those “outdoorphins.” Do you have a favorite winter outdoor activity?
