Running is one thing that almost every human being can do without any coaching.
What if the key to a healthier, happier recovery was as simple as lacing up your running shoes and changing your diet? In this episode of 'Recovery Talks', Greg Arciello, a board member of Montana's Peer Network and certified behavioral health peer support specialist, shares his personal journey of integrating running and a plant-based diet into his recovery process.
Greg's story is not just about physical fitness; it's about embracing a holistic approach to well-being that encompasses mental, spiritual, and physical health. He believes that running is an accessible activity for almost anyone and underscores the importance of self-care in recovery. Greg also highlights the transformative power of nutrition, explaining how a plant-based diet has positively impacted his mental and physical health. When we're battling addiction or mental health issues, our physical health often takes a backseat.
Greg's experience shows that taking care of our bodies can significantly enhance our overall well-being. Meditation is another tool in Greg's recovery toolkit. He practices it to calm his mind and reduce stress, emphasizing that there's no wrong way to meditate – it's the quality, not the quantity, that counts. Community support plays a crucial role in Greg's recovery. He encourages joining running or walking clubs and setting goals like signing up for races to stay motivated.
This episode offers valuable insights into how combining physical activity, nutrition, and mindfulness can support recovery. Greg's journey is a testament to the power of a holistic approach, providing hope and inspiration for anyone struggling with addiction or mental health challenges.
