I believe in the joy, wonder, and healing effects of walking in nature unplugged from the daily stressors of life. The exercise and fresh air are nourishing for the body; the beauty and peacefulness of our Berkshire landscapes are restful for the brain and a comfort for the soul.

Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's
peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds
will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while
cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.
—John Muir
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely, or unhappy
is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quite alone with the heavens,
nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and
that God wishes to see people happy amidst the simple beauty of nature. ...I
firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.
—Anne Frank

Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread.
