āœ’ Self-Care Hacks āœ’

Let’s face it: recovery isn’t all sunshine and rainbows—it’s more like a cloudy hike where you occasionally trip over roots (aka life). But what if you turned that hike into an actual treasure hunt? Enter the ā€œOutdoor Treasure Huntā€ sober hack. It’s part therapy, part cardio, and 100% fun.

Here’s how it works: Write some uplifting notes for yourself or a sober buddy. Hide them in a park under benches, in tree hollows, or taped to the back of a suspiciously large rock. Then go on a treasure hunt to find them. Bonus points if you add ridiculous drawings of squirrels in motivational poses.

Why does this work? For starters, it gets you outside, and science says that’s a win. A study published in Environmental Health Perspectives found that spending just two hours a week in nature boosts mental and physical health. Plus, the act of walking around searching for hidden treasures releases dopamine—the feel-good brain chemical we’re all chasing, but in a healthy way this time.

Then there’s the element of surprise. When you find a note that says, ā€œHey, future you, keep being awesome!ā€ or ā€œYou’re stronger than the Wi-Fi at a coffee shop,ā€ it’s like a mini-celebration. It breaks up the monotony of the day and reminds you that joy can be homemade—and sometimes buried under a pile of leaves.

So grab a pen, a notepad, and your best hiding skills. Whether you’re leaving notes for yourself or a sober sidekick, this treasure hunt is the ultimate reminder: sobriety isn’t just about surviving—it’s about thriving with a little mischief along the way.
