The seed of Healing Miles

The seeds of Healing Miles: Gifts from the Caminos Norte and Primitivo came from the journal I kept during the two major hikes across Spain. As life unfolded--my unresolved medical problem and my mother's decline--I couldn't help but write about the challenges I faced, but also the love and support I got from friends and family back home, unbelievably kind people I met while on the trail, and the trail experience itself.
A difficult walk sometimes takes you out of your head--forces you to focus on where to place your next step. And sometimes you are so struck by the beauty and wonder of your surroundings that you are transported to a higher level. This is living in the moment at its best.
