Today, we're reaffirming what #OptOutside means to us and inviting everyone to join. Opt Outside is more than one day or a hashtag — it's a choice we must make every day. Many people feel like their time isn't their own, drifting through life on autopilot as they move unconsciously from work to life's endless "must-dos," only to repeat the cycle. Opt Outside is a reminder to #pause, to #reflect, to #connect, and to #taketimeback. And when you do, as your outdoor co-op, we want to share with you all the possibilities you can unlock when you spend that time outside. So here’s your sign – turn off autopilot and Opt Outside. Need some inspiration? We got you. Check out www.rei.com/opt-outside for ideas, experience, and gear to spend more time outside. We hope to see you out there! #REI #BetterTogether
I had a free hour yesterday and I used it to nap on the beach 🙃 it was awesome haha
The only screen time I want is SUNSCREEN TIME. 😎
#OptOutside meant camping in my backyard this weekend! There was still a screen involved while watching a movie, but it was so much fun!
Opting outside can even simply be building some raised beds and planting things. Taking a walk on lunch or break even if its 15 minutes. Small things are big things.
I bet REI employees would have greater opportunities to #OptOutside if they were allowed to unionize.
Powerful message, should be a billboard in everyone’s homes these days!! Thanks for the reminder! 🙌🏻
Sunshine, breeze, and a beautiful view! We'll #optoutside everyday.
I Opt for the outside every chance I get!!
As the kids say: go touch grass.

1moFor every 75 minutes I spend at my desk in front of a computer I spend ten minutes walking around the block. While it’s not a trail, it gives my brain, body, and spirit the reboot they need to get through a work day day whole and healthy.
