The more time that passes, the less we feel the desire to live a physically healthy lifestyle, and on and on the cycle goes alcohol and the lack of physical motivation.
Physical health often takes a backseat when dealing with the challenges of sobriety, but J.W. Collier is here to change that perspective. In this episode of 'Sober Militia,' Collier dives into how prioritizing physical well-being can significantly boost your recovery journey. He shares his own story of how incorporating exercise into his daily routine transformed his life post-alcohol.
Many who quit drinking find themselves lacking the motivation to stay physically active, a common side effect of breaking free from the cycle of alcohol consumption. Collier tackles this issue head-on, explaining how alcohol poisons the body and why quitting is just the first step toward recovery. The real game-changer, according to Collier, is making physical health a priority.
He emphasizes that alcohol isn't just harmful to the liver; it also contributes to depression, making it crucial to focus on both mental and physical well-being. When Collier quit drinking, he set a goal to reintroduce exercise into his life. Whether it's walking, cycling, or simply getting more steps in daily, he believes that natural forms of exercise can be incredibly beneficial.
His passion for cycling and endurance events shines through as he discusses how staying active has brought him newfound joy and motivation. This episode isn't just about fitness; it's about finding balance and rediscovering the joys of life without alcohol. Collier's personal experiences and practical advice make this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to enhance their sobriety journey through physical health.
