UBC, .....Great idea you introduced about alternative activities for a more "natural" high. Used to hate that overused cliche; "high on life"; esp. when I was drinkin' !!
Been trying to rehab an old calamatous knee injury by cycling the past three months. Now, after gradually building up to around 100 mi. weeks, ...and losing 50lbs of body fat in the process, it's become part of a lifestyle, really. My way to relieve anxiety, and just generally
feel better .
Have to go in Thur. to talk to a Dr. about a damn hernia I got helping someone move furniture several weeks ago. So, it'll probably be no more workouts for a while after that procedure.
Thank goodness for a sober recovery ! Otherwise , couldn't think of a better excuse to get (and stay ) hammered. The "poor me" BS would've been kicking big time.
Chance to practice "acceptance" ...... I guess ?!?
Stay Strong Aprillers !!
