When I’m in nature, I feel so much better. I love being among the trees and away from large swaths of concrete. So, I wanted to round up 5 of my favorite things for getting out in nature this fall!
Living in the bay area it’s freezing in the morning, warm by two, and then by four the fog rolls in and it’s freezing again. Dressing in thin but warm layers is essential.
Trail snacks are a must!! I always make sure to bring a full water bottle and a couple of munchies. I think it’s nice to sit down and really enjoy the scenery.
One of the simplest things to prevent chilly winds from getting me down is to wear a beanie.
You also lose 10% of your body heat from your head, so if it starts to get chilly, wearing a hat is a great way to regulate your body temperature.
Is it even worth hiking if your furry friend can’t come with you!? I get exercise. She gets exercise. My mental health improves doubly because of nature AND puppies.
It’s a winning combo.
