Walking Beside, Not Ahead
Chronic illness meets nature's rhythm. The body sets the pace; presence leads the way.
How to Read This Space
These trails are stories and perspectives, not instructions. I’m not here to tell you what you should do or how you ought to heal. You carry your own map. I carry mine.
We meet on the path for a while, share a little company, and then move on in our own directions. If something here lightens your journey, take it. If not, leave it on the trail for someone else.
What This Content Is (And Isn’t)
This is:
- Personal experience
- Honest struggle
- Strategies that worked for one person navigating chronic illness and trauma through outdoor connection
This isn’t:
- Medical or therapy advice
- Universal solutions
- Transformation stories or instructions for how you should heal
Different voices, same commitment—truth over transformation, presence over performance.
As This Space Grows
Future guest writers will share their own stories from the chronic illness community. Each voice unique, each path different. All united by the understanding that healing rarely looks how we expect, and that’s okay.
Important Boundaries
- Nothing here constitutes medical or therapy advice
- These are personal experiences, not prescriptions
- Consult healthcare providers for medical decisions
- If you’re experiencing thoughts of self-harm, please reach out for professional support immediately
