The world can feel so noisy these days, with constant headlines, heartbreaking news, and the endless buzz of daily life. It’s easy to get caught up in it all and forget to breathe. Sometimes, the best thing we can do is step away, even just for a little while, and let the quiet of nature soothe our minds and souls. This solo getaway was more than just a trip—it was a step forward in reclaiming pieces of my life. Living with PTSD, panic attacks, and debilitating migraines can make it hard to do the things I used to love. But thanks to Archie, my therapist, medication, friends and family I’m finding the courage to step out again. His steady presence, grounding techniques, and unconditional support help me face challenges I never thought I could overcome. Spending a few days surrounded by nothing but the sounds of the wind, water, and birds reminded me how healing it can be to slow down, tune out the noise, and reconnect with the simplicity of the world around us. How do you find calm and where do you go to feel at peace during difficult times? . . . . . . . . . .
