Hey thanks Steph! What a lovely message. You are right, it is absolutely a form of mindfulness. And yes, I think its the connectedness that keeps us strong and motivated. Thank you for consolidating my thoughts on it, I wrote this fairly quickly and off the cuff really but your message helped me revisit my thoughts on it.
I'd love to join the Get Active Stay Well group - as you can probably guess from the delay in my response, I'm not a regular visitor to this site, I tend to dip in and out when I feel inspired or troubled! I will definitely investigate, and will keep running in the meantime.
Thanks again
xx
