This past weekend, I had the pleasure of guiding an incredible group of hikers starting from the charming village of Great Missenden.

After a spot of coffee and croissants at the local cafe, we journeyed through breathtaking hilltop forests draped in vibrant autumn hues and traversed scenic open meadows where we spotted pheasants and partridges.

The hike was filled with lively conversations and many stunning viewpoints, leaving us in awe. A perfect blend of nature and unforgettable moments.

Upon return, we enjoyed some hot chocolate and billionaire shortbread to replenish the energy for the drive home.

Part 1 - I took a stroll in my local park with my camera, capturing the beauty of nature’s art with a touch of human influence – pathways lined with trees, autumn leaves scattered on benches, wildlife and furry friends, and people engaging in activities.

Local parks inspire me, showing how art, nature and people coexist. Every corner has a unique view, reminding me that beauty often lies right at our doorstep, waiting to be appreciated and framed.

What if the goals you’ve been putting off are waiting for you to take that first courageous step? Imagine the places you could go, the dreams you could achieve, and the fulfilment you could feel.

Sometimes, all it takes is a step forward to ignite a journey toward something extraordinary. Let this remind you to believe in your dreams and trust in your ability to make them come to life.

Rise as high as your dreams take you. Aim beyond the horizon!

I shot this yesterday. 99% of people will see this photograph, feel motivated, and then move on without taking action.

But the 1%? They get it. They show up. They step into nature, realising that it’s not just about what you take from it but what it gives back.

Nature is drawn to those who are present, rewarding you with calm, perspective, and energy.

Be the 1% who gets out there, embraces the wild, and discovers what nature has waiting for you.

I'm a huge advocate for encouraging kids to explore nature from a young age.

Introducing them early helps them appreciate the natural world and grow into mindful stewards of our planet. Whether it's a beach picnic or a walk through a meadow, these simple moments can ignite their curiosity and foster a love for the outdoors.

If you've read "My Story" on my website, you'll know that my early solo adventures brought me to the foothills of Mount Kenya and the shorelines of Lake Naivasha, where I first experienced hiking and camping at 12 years of age.

However, I was much younger when I started spending much of my time in nature surrounding my home. The great outdoors was my sanctuary, classroom, and playground, and it continues to be today.

By starting young, we're shaping the next generation to care for and protect our Earth and helping them disburse their bundle of energy.

Hiking is such a fun and simple way to enjoy the outdoors. That's what makes it unique — it's for everyone, regardless of age or background. You don't need much gear to get started and you can go for long or short walks.

When possible, I often head to my local woods for an evening hike, sometimes on my own and sometimes with my family. It's such a joy to combine fresh air, exercise, and adventure.

It's low-impact, but the physical and mental health benefits are excellent! It's a great way to get outside and feel good.

Try it, go get your dose of nature this evening!

If you are suffering from high levels of stress, anxiety and potential depression, you may have felt a never-ending circle of thoughts. We all do at some point. The most fortifying way of fighting this severe mental fog is surrendering to nature. I know this from experience.

Spending time in nature reduces stress and anxiety, contributes to better heart health, and alleviates depression through vigorous exercise and walks in nature.

Hence, if cortisol, the stress hormone, is reduced through the outdoors, which is often the case, the body and mind react positively to increased happiness.

As we walk through nature, no matter the weather, it fills us with a sense of being truly alive.

Every effort to connect with nature, whether rain, wind or sunshine, reminds us of being grounded.

Just as we don't give up on loved ones during tough times, we embrace nature's challenges, knowing they enrich the experience.

Nature is a great reminder that beauty and growth exist even when the most challenging scenarios are presented.

NEW VIDEO RELEASE!

This is Day 2 of my trek from Tintwistle Peak District to Marsden. I hoped for sunshine, but the forecast changed rapidly overnight, and I encountered a fierce storm.

It was a challenging day with 50-55 mph winds at the peaks and heavy rain lashing sideways!

With conviction, you lay the foundation for healthy morale and confidence naturally grows. Each step, backed by belief in yourself, strengthens your determination and fuels your success. Trust your journey, embrace challenges, and know that every effort brings you closer to a more confident and empowered version of yourself.

Nature is an influential teacher of resilience and fortitude.

As we hike through forests, climb mountains, or face the elements, we witness firsthand how the natural world endures and thrives through constant change.

Trees bend in the wind without breaking, rivers carve through rock, and wildlife adapts to survive. In these moments, we’re reminded of our own ability to overcome challenges. Nature teaches us to persist, adapt, and grow stronger through adversity.

Every step outdoors becomes a metaphor for life, showing us that resilience isn’t just about survival — it’s about thriving, even in the face of difficulty.
