Getting back into skiing this year after ACL surgery has been challenging. I’m just over six months out and some days, it feels like I’m taking two steps forward one step back. It’s been a slow process and my knee still feels like it’s 70%. ⁣⁣It gives me a ton of appreciation for the times in my life I’ve been in peak fitness. And it makes skiing interesting again. I’m learning so many new ways to use my leg everyday. It excites and tires me. My brain is making new connections. My balance and proprioception are challenged. ⁣⁣I’m working my way back up slowly and conservatively and taking it one day at a time. And constantly telling my muscles and knee how strong and awesome they are! ⁣⁣Your body hears what you say to it and your cells and tissue react.

Climb up the mountain, ski down. I love the uphill experience, the gentle rhythm of moving through the mountains and being in the elements. It reminds me that I'm not separate from the earth but a part of it. And wind, snow and humidity are no match for my #JaybirdVista headphones. They can handle whatever I throw at them. Thanks to @jaybirdsport for powering this magical early season adventure. #EarthProof

You know those days you just want to stay in a warm bubble bath all day? I have a lot of those.⁣*⁣Obviously, some moments are more gram-worthy than others. But sometimes, I just need to slow down and take a day or night off, away from the busy-ness of the holiday season.⁣*⁣Social media always shows how we go, but it doesn’t show how we rest. I believe we must continue to prioritize our own wellness and that of others.⁣*⁣That’s why I recommend giving @gaiaherbs wellness gifts for the holidays. A few of my favorites are the Full Spectrum Hemp Extra, which I personally use for stress management, Black Elderberry Syrup for immune support and Golden Milk and Tumeric Supreme to help reduce inflammation.⁣*⁣Working with @gaiaherbs has been so helpful for my knee recovery and I’m so grateful for their partnership.⁣*⁣As a way to say happy holidays, we are doing a giveaway of these four products! ⁣*⁣TO ENTER: Follow @gaiaherbs and share your favorite ways to rest and restore in the comments below.

Checking in with my bridesmaids on their dress color choices from Everest base camp was something I’ll never forget. Thank goodness we had LTE there so we could pull off this mismatched but cohesive bridesmaids dress look. ⁣⁣Planning my wedding was so much fun! It was something I had been dreaming of for so long. ⁣⁣It happened at the perfect time in my life. It took me a long time to accept and love the part of myself that loves to wear dresses and twirl around in chiffon. It took me a long time to accept that I can be a feminist and want to be a bride and a wife. Gender equality is all about honoring the best parts of everyone. ⁣⁣I love these strong, brave and beautiful women! And strong is the new pretty! ⁣#climbforequality ⁣⁣Photo: @erinorthcutt
