Substack Hopium: (Cal) There's Gold in Them Hills
Thursday, 8 October, 2026
Send us Fan MailAs I walk I see many things. I regularly come across encampments of people who have something a bit better than what “was” but which is still shy of what I imagine is possible. They smile and wave and tell me I can stop because they’ve done it. It’s good here. They’ve achieved it. “Don’t make it so hard,” they tell me. I see them and believe that they have, perhaps, reached the place where they want to and can rest. And I like being with themI haven’t reached that place, so we share a snack and I keep going. Oh sure, I am sometimes stymied by freak snow storms, laid low for a few days by rotten food, or waylaid by a bridge that’s out but I also find beautiful flowers and cold, trickling streams. I am surprised by rainbows and gorgeous sunrises that refuel me.And I keep going.I keep going because I know what has historically happened when people who imagine that things can be different and better set out to find or create the “better.”Support the showSubscribe to our Substack: "More Than Hands"Send us an email: podcast@healwell.orgLeave us a voice message: 703-468-1799 Check out our interview-style podcast: InterdisciplinaryYou can support Healwell and the cool things we make by donating here!Ways join in:Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsCheck out Healwell’s live and online classesContinue the conversation with a free 3-day trial of the Healwell CommunityFind a copy of Rebecca Sturgeon's book: "Oncology Massage: An Integrative Approach to Cancer Care"Thank you to ABMP and AMTA for sponsoring us!Healwell is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based out of the Washington DC area.
