Studies seem to show that since the start of COVID, the world has become more depressed, anxious, and overdose deaths are way up in the US. What are you doing to stay more upbeat? How can doctors be more helpful?

It is still unclear how much of a threat the fast-spreading Omicron variant poses, but fear and a sudden revival of restrictions have added to an epidemic of loneliness.

Hey gang, getting outdoors and hiking can be good for the heart, improve blood sugar control, boost bone density, and lower stress. Is it time to head for the hills?

We first did this hike back in 2002, a year after I had my knee reconstructed. The surgery did not turn out so great for my knee, so I was looking for a trip to help lift my spirit and recharge my body. As we kept returning to this part of the world to recharge, year after year, this hike became a tradition and a symbol of overcoming the previous year and moving into the next with gusto. In 2016, I sustained a bad back injury that affected the function in my left leg. My recovery was long and hard, but the vision of getting back on this beautiful trail became a barometer and a target. I started simulating hikes and exercise routines at home to get me prepared.
With the design of my second book cover and the picture of a man climbing and then raising his arms up in victory, I started taking a similar picture every time I got back to this peak in the climb. After the pandemic started, I was not sure when I would have this opportunity, again. But this summer, wedged between the vaccine and the rise of the delta variant, we were blessed to make it back. After two decades, how much longer will I be able to continue to do this hike? No idea, but happy to keep grinding for now. BTW, for some reason, I always have to wear the same yellow bandana on this hike😊
