Jay Trebelhorn's Journey: Finding Healing in Nature

I think one of the biggest ones, and especially what I found through the phoenix and through other avenues of recovery, is just having a community to rely on so that I don't have to do it all by myself.
Jay Trebelhorn grew up in Minnesota, surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors from a young age. But behind this picturesque backdrop, he battled anxiety and a sense of not fitting in. This internal struggle eventually led him down the path of addiction. In this episode of 'Nature Untold', Jay opens up about his tumultuous journey through addiction, his experiences with treatment centers, and the often cyclical nature of recovery.
Jay doesn't shy away from discussing the relapses he faced and the rationalizations that accompanied them. He also sheds light on the differences between sober living houses and halfway houses, offering valuable insights for those navigating similar paths. A significant turning point in Jay's story is his involvement with The Phoenix, a sober active community non-profit. Here, he discovered the concept of active recovery, blending his love for the outdoors with his commitment to sobriety.
Jay's story is a testament to the healing power of nature. He shares how immersing himself in outdoor activities provided solace and a sense of purpose during his recovery. By finding a community of supportive, like-minded individuals, Jay was able to create a life that he loves, free from the grip of addiction. One of the most compelling aspects of Jay's journey is his decision to avoid social media, choosing instead to focus on real-world connections and experiences.
This episode is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding what you love and building a life around it. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Jay's story offers hope, inspiration, and practical advice.
