Everyone can benefit from a camping experience in many ways. Here are my favorites:
- Outdoors, nature, sunshine, fresh air – more oxygen and sunlight brings less stress to your body and soul
- New challenges, activities, exercise – fun activities bring enjoyment and re-creation
- Simplicity – when distractions of daily life are removed it brings a feeling of calm and you can find a renewed joy
- Solitude and meditation – emotional and spiritual rest helps to connect you with God and can bring a positive outlook in life
- Strengthened relationships – time together in a relaxed and fun setting broadens friendships and reconnects family This summer, go camping and experience renewal, body and soul.
