Hiking – MoveMint Yoga

Big South Fork

I’m sure that I say this every year, but gosh this year has flown! If you’ve read or heard me talk about fall, you know that I grew up in the Arizona desert where there were no trees that went through a color change in the fall. So leaves are a PRETTY BIG DEAL asContinue reading “Big South Fork”

Day Hike in the Red (River Gorge)

Do you ever get to the point where you just don’t want to see another notification, another text, phone call, email? I certainly hit my limit recently. Full-on stressed out over small things. I really needed a reset. Enter a place with hardly any cell signal. Getting outside always helps me, but spending hours whereContinue reading “Day Hike in the Red (River Gorge)”

The End of Winter Is Coming!

The official start of spring is only a few days away! I’m so happy about warmer weather on the forecast. Like most people, I use the last bit of winter to catch up on projects before spring hits. For example, I reorganized and relocated my kitchen pantry. It is in my living room now. 😂Continue reading “The End of Winter Is Coming!”

🍂Fall in Daniel Boone National Forest 🍂

We are a few days away from the official start of winter on December 21, so I’m still posting about my fall hike during the fall season. 😏 Technically. Gosh, it took me a while to put this short video together. Mostly because the fall season has held much warmer weather than usual. I believeContinue reading “🍂Fall in Daniel Boone National Forest 🍂”

Forest Bathing

Have you tried forest bathing? No, I don’t mean taking off your clothes and scaring the other hikers. 😆 For many years, humans have innately known what science proves in different ways over and over again. Nature is good for you on a deep level. Good for your eyes to stretch out to a distanceContinue reading “Forest Bathing”

Strong for Summer (and for life) part 2 of 2

I am a little bit of an REI gear junkie, lol. I just got an email from them last week saying that I’ve officially been a member of the co-op for 10 years. 10 years!? I got the membership as an adult and after shopping there pretty regularly for a while. Strange how time passesContinue reading “Strong for Summer (and for life) part 2 of 2”

Finding Motivation to Keep Pushing

This quote from – Anatoli Boukreev – I have said it before, I don’t climb to set records. First, I’m not that great at it. 🤣 The primary reason that I climb outside, is because I love being outside. The secondary reason is that it is a badass skill. And the joy that I getContinue reading “Finding Motivation to Keep Pushing”

Strong for Summer (and for life)

When you hear the word “yoga,” what physical image comes to mind? Is the first thought or image a flexible pose? Maybe a VERY flexible person? Well, if you are visiting my site, I hope that one of the first thoughts that you have is in relation to how much STRENGTH it takes to practiceContinue reading “Strong for Summer (and for life)”

Grow Your Pose Yoga Hike

I’ll admit that I feel a bit silly running around in public taking pictures. I’ve said it before. I’m sure that I’ll end up on influencers in the wild doing something absurd. Yet, I persist. And really, I’m genuinely excited to share my love of movement (MoveMint 😉) and nature with people who share thoseContinue reading “Grow Your Pose Yoga Hike”

Rock Climbing at Cathedral Domain

😭 I FINALLY made it climbing outside again! I will be the first person to admit that I am NOT an expert climber. Now, don’t get me wrong with what I am about to say- I absolutely love pushing myself. And there are few things that are more satisfying than climbing a really hard route.Continue reading “Rock Climbing at Cathedral Domain”
