Roughlock Falls. Spearfish Canyon, SD.<\/p><\/div>\n

After some years at performing one of the top 10 deadliest jobs in the US according to Forbes, I was stressed and seriously sick.<\/p>\n

During a recovery phase lasting over a year and a half, I had time to do something that I wasn’t used to doing: think without being stressed!<\/p>\n

I noticed the birds outside my window and the alternating smells of rain and sunshine in the air; I could enjoy the little things. To my surprise, I felt happy<\/em>. It wasn’t something that I was used to feeling!<\/p>\n

\"\"Many things changed. One very important realization became clear: we weren’t having nearly enough fun. This needed to change.<\/p>\n

When I was able to, we set off on our grand adventure. We loaded all of our belongings into a U haul trailer and set off for an unknown town in the beginnings of the ‘wild west’.<\/p>\n

Although we’ve alighted temporarily after having rambled around out here, we’re not done yet.<\/p>\n

Many people have forgotten how to have fun and they don’t know how to think without the effects of stress, as stress and negativity are peddled at every turn. It takes a concentrated effort to get around this. I am an HSP<\/a><\/strong>, so it’s been especially difficult.<\/p>\n
