✒ Self-Care Hacks ✒

So, you’ve kicked the booze, ditched the late-night regrets, and now you’re looking for a self-care tactic that won’t involve crying in a bubble bath for three hours? Enter: camping—nature’s way of saying, “Chill out, human.”

Now, before you panic and picture yourself fighting off a bear with a spork, hear me out. Camping isn’t just about surviving the great outdoors—it’s a sober superhero move for your mental health. Science backs this up! A study published in Environmental Research found that spending time in nature significantly reduces cortisol (a.k.a. your stress hormone) and boosts serotonin (the happy brain juice). Translation? More peace, less panic.

Here’s why becoming a Camping Guru is a self-care flex:

1. Unplug to Recharge – No doomscrolling. No emails. Just you, a tent, and a squirrel that might steal your granola bar. Studies show that disconnecting from technology reduces anxiety and improves focus. Your brain needs a break from the chaos, and nature is the original “Do Not Disturb” mode.

2. Survival Skills = Sober Wins – Setting up a tent? Cooking over a fire? These aren’t just rugged life skills; they’re confidence boosters. Every time you conquer something new, your brain gets a little dopamine party—kind of like leveling up in a video game, but without the Mountain Dew and 3 a.m. regret.

3. Fresh Air, Fresh Mindset – Breathing in phytoncides (a fancy word for “tree chemicals”) has been shown to lower blood pressure and improve immune function. Basically, hugging trees (or at least camping near them) makes you healthier and happier.

So grab a sleeping bag, roast some marshmallows (sans whiskey), and let nature be your therapist. Because nothing screams “I’m thriving in recovery” like confidently making fire with a stick… or at least using a lighter like a pro. 🔥
