#57 Hike for Mental Health and #hikeOctober

In this episode, we talk with Leo, Brielle, and Jasmine who are part of the Hike for Mental Health nonprofit organization.  Hike for Mental Health organizes hikes while also funding mental health research and trail conservation.  The outdoors and hiking has many benefits for an individual’s well-being.  We talk about each guest's experience and personal journey with Hike for Mental Health and hear the story behind the organization.  The whole month of October is #hikeOctober!  This is an opportunity for people to get out on the trail, no matter the distance, no matter your hiking ability, and hike for mental health.  We talk about the details of #hikeOctober and how you can become involved in October.  We also talk about various ways you can become involved longer-term with the organization if that sparks your interest.  This episode is a listen for anyone who has used the outdoors as a way to find some clarity in their own mental well-being!
