Series One

A story of chronic illness, motion, and return.

There’s a moment the body stops pretending.
When it can’t outrun the ache.

This series begins there — not in triumph, but in quiet defiance.

Not a guide to getting better — a companion for presence.
The forest won’t fix you, but it will reflect you.
And sometimes, that’s enough.

Healing isn’t return — it’s becoming.
Wounds and all.
Still tired. Still rolling.


🌲 Act I: The Body in the Wild

This act centers on reclaiming the body through nature—
honoring chronic illness while making space for movement,
even when it’s hard.

🪞 Act II: The Forest Reflects (Coming Soon)

What if the wild could witness our wounds without trying to fix them?
In Act II, the forest becomes mirror and medicine —
not to change us, but to remind us that even the broken still belong.


🔥 Act III: Becoming / Returning (Coming Soon)

The final act isn’t arrival — it’s the practice of return.
Healing means growing around our wounds,
like trees that split and still reach for light.


🌿 Series Two Preview

Series Two will explore the deeper connections between trauma and illness —
how the body holds stories,
and how nature helps release what no longer serves.
