There are lots of health benefits of hiking or just getting outdoors in general. It doesn't have to be up a mountain.
Exercising releases endorphins, your body's natural happy chemicals which can counter negative feelings, boosting your mood and making you feel like something has been accomplished. Marry that feeling with a magnificent view from a mountain summit and you have the perfect combination.
I have just released a new free video in my Classroom which goes into the benefits in more depth so make sure you check it out and let me know on this post what is your go to hike to release those Endorphins!
