About this Event
Join us for our weekly Wednesday recovery walk, starting near Lawrence Subway Station through the Alexander Muir Memorial Gardens, then onto Blythwood Park, Sherwood Park, up until Sunnybrook hospital, and back!
This walk follows a stream and in my opinion is quite relaxing! A segment of this trail (Sherwood Park) is through an off-leash dog park. There are usually very few dogs in this park, and I personally like dogs, but being okay with dogs is probably a pre-condition for attending! There are some steps on this walk.

About the Group
------------------------
For anyone recovering from a tough circumstance, addiction, or mental health condition, we are starting "Recovery Walks," a way to increase mental, physical, and relational health.
- Improve mental health through a change in scenery by getting out of the house and finding commonality around shared issues in a supportive environment
- Improve physical health by getting fresh air and a light walk
- Improve relational health by connecting with others from the community who also want to connect!
Share as much or as little of your personal story as you’d like and also connect around fun solutions to problems. Chat about the sounds of the birds and the scenery!
We would prefer participants focus on recovery, health, and joy rather than dating, to aid in keeping things simple for the purposes of a pleasant and affiliative recovery group!
Cost: To pay for the meetup.com fees and fund new initiatives, the cost to attend is $3, paid in person or by e-transfer to [email protected].
We don’t want to turn away anyone who could benefit, so if you can’t pay because of your circumstances, no guilt at all, come anyway.
