I studied with the herbalist Dr. Christopher and he stressed the importance of contact with the Earth everyday

It will be 3 months tomorrow, and the first month I drank excessively to survive, the second month I planned my hike in order to fill my days and now I spend most of my days walking that path of white blazes that gives me a purpose... and then... I don't know? I have a few acres in Northern Vermont, but needed something bigger... I have gotten through Georgia, into North Carolina and will be entering the Smokies in the next day or so...

yes, we are better, healthier when we stay in touch
