The last few months had been incredibly difficult for me due to a number of life events occurring in a short period of time that were all out of my control😞
Therapy was definitely helping but I was desperate to get away and give me nervous system a chance to reset.
I found this amazing Elephant Sanctuary in Chiang Mai Thailand and I spent a week with the elephants🐘🐘🐘.
Truly thinking I couldn’t possibly be sad whilst hugging an elephant. Well turns out you can still carry the sadness whilst also feeling many moments of happiness.
Being with the elephants was amazing. I never felt intimidated by them, gosh they are huge!! They just come across as such gentle animals, except when they’re shoving each other out of the way trying to get to food😆
I will post some more information on the sanctuary soon and let you know the sort of things you can expect to do there.
But yes, the elephants were like soul food for the depression I was feeling at the time. I will be forever grateful to those heavenly creatures for helping my mind set improve so much🐘🙏❤️
