the retreat place texted me and said that their yoga person was unavailable… so I guess I will not be trying ariel yoga..

they offered something called skin brushing or a swiss ball massage session and aromatherapy session…

I have never had skin brushing, I didn’t (have since done some reading) know what it was or why it’s done, so I chose that… because stepping outside the comfort and experience zone is (apparently) healthy.

The forecast is for rain all week… so my bushwalking sessions will be lovely – I am thinking of taking my DSLR out… I very much doubt there will be much wildlife out and about in this weather but maybe I’ll get some mushroom shots, or flowers.. . but reframing the ‘hikes’ into photography sessions (which it’s been a while so looking forward to that) is probably a great idea.

set expectation low and go with the flow.
