Lotta Hintsa Instagram – First of all, no. I’m not climbing Mount Whitney right now, I’m breastfeeding.
Anyway, at the time of filming this video I was contemplating the concept of self-care that was really trending at the time and I couldn’t really relate to the spa-moments and whole food fads (mountaineer’s meals are mostly processed foods, cheese and candy).
BUT when we came down from Mount Whitney I watched this and wasn’t impressed and blamed it on my high altitude brain. Now I found this video again while postpartum and sleep deprived and I’m thinking I sound pretty smart and I need to implement my own advice now.
But overall the logical conclusion is that once again, there’s something very similar with climbing in high altitude and having a baby: both include compromised thinking and quite frankly some hallucinations have entered the chat at times.
I don’t know, thought I’d share. How do you define self-care?
And if you listened to this story, just FYI, it was off-season and we had permits.🫰🏻 | Posted on 03/Mar/2026 18:54:31
