“Take a hike!” My Mother used to say this phrase routinely when I was growing up. 
It was her polite way of saying Fuck Off. 😂🤣😂

Despite this fun fact about my NY mother’s slang, I became an avid hiker. My Hiking expeditions began during my late teenage years and continue today.
Hiking is a great way to get some exercise and fresh air. It’s also a lot of fun! Absolute one of my favorite ways to reconnect with myself. 

Not only does hiking get your heart rate up and your muscles moving, but it’s also good for your mental health. Spending time in nature has been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. And, of course, hiking is really good for our health, burns calories, mellows our mood and provides us some time in the sun and fresh air.. So, if you’re looking for a way to get in shape and enjoy the outdoors, hiking is a great option. 

I hope you get to go on a hike this weekend too. Notice that I didn’t tell you to ‘Take a Hike’. 😉

ps. I consulted with both my brother and sister to confirm that I was understanding moms intention behind the phrase. They each, independently, confirmed.
