“You are all as much extraordinary phenomena of nature as say, trees, clouds, the shape of fire, the arrangement of stars, the formation of a galaxy. You are all just like that. There’s nothing wrong with you at all… except you have in you something that thinks there’s something wrong with you… but there’s nothing wrong with that either because that’s part of the flow.” - Alan Watts

Sometimes we all need a reminder ☝️Nothing like a massive alpine setting to remind us always and again how we’re all simultaneously tiny and impermanent and massively beautiful.
.
We’re still here Idaho, soaking up as much of your serenity and beauty as we can before we start the journey back to Denver for @outdoorretailer later this month and then to NorCal for @theoutbound Pursuit Series in Bear Valley. Anyone else going to either of these events?

HALP creatives!!! I’ve been struggling something fierce on the creative inspiration front the last few weeks.
.
Sometimes what I write doesn’t feel insightful or deep enough to do our situation or Matt’s beautiful photo justice. Sometimes I just can’t get any words to flow. When this has happened before I turn to nature but that hasn’t seemed to snap me out of it. I know some of you have experienced a version of this before… is there anything specific you do to help get yourself out of a creative funk?!
.
Right now I’m trying the ‘hot spring method’…
