Going on walks has been such a huge help for me. Have I been on 5 long walks in one day before just to get out of my own head? Yep! Does it help? Yep!

Do you just pack up a backpack with snacks and water and just start walking?

Also a huge fan of long walks to clear my mind. I went to an art gallery crawl yesterday evening and then when I got home, made a snack and then went for a long walk around the neighbourhood. So very healing!

Yes!! this is what helped me in my sobriety. Early on when I had a craving of alcohol I would go walk ..Next step what helped was the Celebrate Recovery group at my church.

I used to love going on walks, need to get back into it. Thanks for the inspiration.

I love going on walks too clears your mind makes you feel good physically and mentally

I absolutely love to walk/hiking I have a man made trail I take to doc's every appointment 3-4 a week I just moved to Oregon and small well kept town

Love this for you! From the vitamin D to the exercise it’s so important to our recovery

This post inspired me. I went on some long walks last weekend. First time I have done it in years. It's such a different experience walking the city outside of the car.

You really get to see things like businesses when you're not zooming by.
