Last month @stevenger at @uproxx asked me to introduce him to the beauty of forest bathing amongst the Redwoods and I was like, yes, that is right up my alley! What is it? Forest bathing is a walking meditation with no goal other than to take in all of the sensory details of the nature around you and let it refresh and rejuvenate you. I know it sounds woo-woo but try it! It feels so good. I used to spend most of my time indoors but nowadays I truly feel the most comfortable outside, 5 days into a backpacking trip… Last month @stevenger at @uproxx asked me to introduce him to the beauty of forest bathing amongst the Redwoods and I was like, yes, that is right up my alley!

I know it sounds woo-woo but try it! It feels so good. I used to spend most of my time indoors but nowadays I truly feel the most comfortable outside, 5 days into a backpacking trip with no technology, (no showers! ), and no other people. Anybody else here feel that way too? Catch my stories and hit the link in my bio to see the full video! Thanks @ToyotaUS for giving us wheels for this adventure with the new RAV4 Hybrid. It was the perfect adventure vehicle #AdventureRX #sponsored Last month @stevenger at @uproxx asked me to introduce him to the beauty of forest bathing amongst the Redwoods and I was like, yes, that is right up my alley!

Today is world #diabetes day. I've lived with #type1diabetes for about 18 years. Awareness is important but if there's one message I feel compelled to share it's empowerment. There's a lot of content supporting the idea that life with diabetes is hard. That's not inaccurate, but it is incomplete. Limitations are important because they make us dig deep and create the world we choose to live in. Diabetes is not an insurmountable challenge. Diet. Exercise. Motivation. These are essential tools that matter and make a huge difference and give us an opportunity to exercise control in our lives despite the difficulty of the 24/7 grind. The story we accept about what diabetes means in our life will direct the way we step up to the challenge. It's bigger than drugs and devices, highs and lows--or it can be, if we make it so. I'm thankful for the challenge of diabetes because it's forced me to choose how I want to live and it's brought amazing people and experiences into my life. #adventureRx #worlddiabetesday

#sunset on #kilimanjaro. What's your weekend got in store? Getting outside to chase the last bit of fall or staying inside and (hopefully) cozy? Either sounds like a good option to me! I'll be heading outside with some cameras for at least part of the weekend--hoping to mix and match the fun! #hiking #peoplewhohike #adventure #adventureRx #ownyourstory #travel #travelphotography

A project I've been working on for the last couple of weeks has just launched-- The Adventure Photography Podcast! Check it out on iTunes and subscribe--I'm hoping to grow this into a community of other who are passionate about creative adventures, not just technical stuff and pixel peeping. I'm doing all kinds of stories, gear talk, sharing what I've learned and what I'm trying to figure out! Also bringing you interviews with other #adventure photographers like @danbaileyphoto whose episode is part of our launch! Maybe you would like to be on the show--I believe we all have something to share. Check it out and let me know! #adventurephotography #adventureRx #getoutside #climbing

Making photographs all the time is important. Not every image is a spectacular adventure. Every image is an opportunity to practice seeing some action develop into a story--a piece that completes a puzzle. I'm uncomfortable living away from mountains because it's harder to find photos that make themselves obvious. Maybe that's a good thing--having to work harder to find the subtleties and get better at seeing small details. #adventureRx #getoutside #fall #hiking #beastcoast

I got a chance to get out to the #gunks for some #climbing. Here's the vlog I shot with the #sony #rx100m4 http://bit.ly/AdventureRx088 (linked in my bio) and a photo from the welcome boulder! Fall in the northeast remains one of the best times of the year to be outside anywhere! #getoutside #adventureRx #foliage #upstateny #getoutstayout
