That physical aspect is very important and it increases the feeling of control. It's rewiring the neural pathways, yes, in their brain, and we're kind of hijacking that old road.

In this episode of 'The Recovery Mile', Certified Fitness Trainer Robin King shares his unique perspective as the Director of Recreational Therapy at Twelve Oaks Recovery. Robin dives into how physical activities can be more than just a way to stay fit—they can be transformative for those battling mental health issues and substance use disorders.
He discusses the science behind how these activities help rewire the brain and provide new coping mechanisms, offering a fresh outlook on traditional therapy. Robin's insights are both practical and inspiring, making this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the multifaceted approaches to recovery. Whether you're struggling yourself or supporting someone who is, you'll find valuable takeaways that could make a real difference in your journey.
