Today I went for a walk at Treen, one of my favourite spots here in Cornwall. 🌊
It’s the kind of place many people visit to tackle a big coastal hike, clock up the miles and challenge themselves.
But that wasn’t why I was there.
I was there for the sea views, the fresh air, the wildflowers, a catch-up with a friend and a piece of cake at the end.
Somewhere along the way, we’ve been taught that movement only “counts” if it’s hard. If you’re out of breath, pushing your limits or walking further than you did last time.
But what if movement could simply be enjoyable?
What if it could be slow, gentle and on your terms?
For so many people in our community, putting on their shoes and getting outside is a huge achievement. Whether that’s a 10-minute stroll around the block or a wander along the coast.
Every step counts.
Not because of the distance you cover, but because you showed up for yourself. 💛
What’s your favourite local spot for a gentle walk?
