Gratitude Day #1: My Body

My relationship with my body has been turbulent; it took me years to learn functional ways to relate to my body and I’ve learnt to appreciate it for how it serves me everyday instead of punishing it for its flaws.Today I’m grateful for my little legs that take me through my daily life as well as my most challenging yet rewarding trips. This euphoric photo was taken at the top of Brieskrednosi summit in the Norwegian fjords after the most difficult 6hr ascent of my life. I was nearly in tears from exhaustion and pain and my legs were in agony for a week after the hike but the stunning view at the top was worth every second.
