Thankyou Woman and Home for sharing my passion for movement and protecting our planet in your article about new hobbies to try in 2023!
I’ve always been someone who has enjoyed moving (once upon a time I was a professional dancer!) but it wasn’t until I moved to the kent coast and started taking my joy for moving outside on the beach that I started wanting to give back to this planet that was providing me with a free and natural gym! As a dance student I’d spent some time training in Sweden, so was familiar with the Swedish term ‘plogging’ which essentially combines jogging while picking up rubbish (“jogging” and “plocka upp”, Swedish for “picking up”). I started incorporating a simple 2 minute litter pick every time I’d head out for a walk, jog or even paddle board. Not only did it feel good to move outside, it also felt good giving back to Mother Nature. 🌎🍃 In recent years I have shared my passion with others and lead yoga litter picks for @onplanetpatrol . I highly recommend taking a look at what this charity offers if your feeling inspired to ‘plogg’ yourself! Their sessions are totally free and it’s also a great way to meet like minded people! I’d love to hear how you informative litter picks into the way you move? So far I’ve combined it with jogging, walking, wild swimming, yoga, paddleboarding and surfing but I’m sure there are more ways to combine the two and feel inspired to try more in 2023!
