If you ask me, life is all about taking a wild dip in the sea or embarking on a jaw-dropping hike, I'm all about those moments. Are you?

A lovely spot for a quite dip - we had this beach to ourselves....although it was March, and absolutely freezing š¤, despite how the weather looks in this image š
Lads the water is COLD now. And fresh water is somethin else! So cold infact, that it defeated me a few weeks ago. I was in Banagher trying out @banagher_sauna and this lovely spot is right along the river shannon by the Banagher Marina. Now while the cold plunge right by the sauna was my own little bit of heaven, trying to dip in the river was absolutely NOT! I could not get in past my waist. ā”ļøSWIPE TO THE END to see how it went š It turns out, living away from the sea is really impacting my tolerance. Cold showers are just not enough!Ā
Definitely have your neoprene boots and gloves on if youāre new to cold water dipping at the moment. This time of year, the water is the coldest itās going to get.
The video on slide 2 is how comfortable I was in the water in early March last year. This is just before the water starts warming up with the spring sun. Now check out my pathetic attempt a few weeks ago on the last slide!Ā
Need to get my cold water game hack up!!

I think we all like to jump to the finish line in life. At the start of the year there were so many things I wanted to change ānowā. I wanted to make BEST friends instantly with people who had the same interests as me. I wanted my business to be thriving immediately, I wanted to drop my anxiety in the bin, never to see it again. I wanted to feel "normal", to look in the mirror and see someone completely new. When I'd think about how I couldn't achieve these things overnight, Iād feel hopeless, and like life was never going to get any better.
I was encouraged to think of life like stepping stones across a river. Instead of focusing on stepping off the other side, itās much more helpful to focus on each individual stepping stone. Itās only when you get to the other side, do you look back and realise how far youāve come.Ā And how much easier it was than you'd expected.
Recently Iāve found myself doing that - looking back at the stepping stones I've crossed. While throughout the year I didnāt see myself making huge progress at any one time, I made baby steps. And now, it turns out Iāve achieved so much I had wanted to, and so much that i thought wasn't possible. Sure, it didnāt take a day or a week even. It took a year, but itās been the most rewarding year of my life so far!Ā
Remember, focus on the stepping stones!Ā

Over the last month Iāve had multiple people tell me that Iām ādifferentā now. The way I act, how comfortable I am around others, how I react to situations that once would have sent me into a panic. And I definitely feel it too. The me a year ago, wouldnāt recognise the me now, and also wouldnāt have believed that it was possible to change so much.
But now, I feel like everything else needs to be different too. I have this craving to be ripped away from everything Iām familiar with and dropped somewhere completely new. As someone who never liked change, this recent need feels strange, but not nearly as strange as it feels for everything to stay the same. Do you get what I mean?
Anyway thanks to @live.adventure.travel for snapping these for me. Originally I had my camera propped on a fence but lord above knows it canāt take another dent or scratch! Love this fleece, gona be snug on the Autumn adventures! Gifted by @passengerclothing
