The Center for Motivation & Change (CMC): Changing the conversation about substance use from stigma ➜ growth, deficits➜strengths, shame➜pride, ideology➜evidence
Just a little #movement each day can support people struggling with #substanceuse.
It doesn’t take much:

🟡 2.5 hrs walking/week or 1 hr jogging
➕ Strength training 2x/week

#Lessstress
✅ Better sleep & mood
✅ More structure, less pressure

Clients #reconnect, #reflect, and start to find comfort in consistency. Healing isn’t just in the therapy…
