🌿 Finding healing in nature

At Arrow Health, recovery goes beyond the walls of our clinical programs. It's about helping residents reconnect with themselves, others and the world around them.

One of the ways we do this is through Forest Therapy. A mindful practise inspired by the Japanese tradition of Shinrin-yoku (“forest bathing”).

More than just a walk in the bush, Forest Therapy invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and engage with your senses. Listen to the rustle of the leaves, feel the earth beneath your feet, and find stillness in nature's rhythm.

Take a read of our post to learn more about how Forest Therapy is transforming treatment at Arrow Health.

Discover how Forest Therapy supports addiction recovery at Arrow Health. Reduce stress, boost wellbeing, & reconnect with nature.

❓💥 Mythbusting time 💥❓
"Mental health and addiction should be treated separately"

Beliefs such as this can be detrimental to a person's recovery. Addiction and mental health are deeply intertwined. Often they feed into and amplify one another. Treating them in isolation can overlook the full complexity of what a person is experiencing.

Many people living with addiction also experience mental health challenges such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, or ADHD - this is a condition referred to as Dual Diagnosis. When these co-occurring conditions aren't treated together, the symptoms of one can intensify the other. For example, untreated anxiety or trauma can drive substance use, while substance use can negatively impact mood and mental health.

This idea that mental health and addiction should be treated separately is not only outdated, but it can be harmful. It can leave people feeling fragmented and as if they need to "fix" one part of themselves before they deserve help with the other.

💛 Understanding dual diagnosis helps break the stigma and reminds us that recovery is possible when all parts of a person are seen, supported, and treated together.

Addiction is a disease, not a choice.
But recovery begins the moment we take responsibility for our actions and how they affect others. 💬

In our upcoming podcast Beyond the Noise, family counsellor Julie Lieber and the Arrow Health team talk about how compassion and accountability can coexist and why that balance is key to lasting recovery.
