Morning all, evening willow

We are all different - but I believe exercise to be absolutely key to my recovery so far. My therapist talks about creating natural rewards in the brain and also about how food and exercise speed brain recovery from alcohol use. Plus if I don't exercise I feel much worse (same as if I eat REALLY badly, I just feel like ****!).

So good on you willow, enjoy your walk and let nature do its thing.

(I really struggle with 'higher power' as a concept but I do believe nature wants to repair us...or at least return to equilibrium...and if we let it and do the work ourselves nature and evolution and science will do the rest.)

Im glad to be sober today. Relationship stuff not great...I'm increasingly resilient and looking to the future positively, but I'm also allowing myself to be sad about what's happening.

Have a great day everyone
