<p>The gym (while incredibly beneficial) does not substitute for therapy, even though it can offer therapeutic benefits </p> <p><br /></p> <p>Therapy involves unpacking emotions, understanding patterns, and developing tools to navigate life’s challenges. </p> <p><br /></p> <p>The gym, on the other hand, can be sometimes be used as a form of avoidance. </p> <p><br /></p> <p>It’s a way to channel difficult emotions, i.e. anger, sadness, anxiety, etc into physical exertion, which can feel productive in the moment but doesn’t address the root cause of those emotions.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>We don’t always deal with this narrative as the maladaptive behaviours they can sometimes be in this space.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Relying on the gym as “therapy” can be pretty destructive sometimes and affect mental and physical health, as well as relationships</p> <p><br /></p> <p>So, how do you know?</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Is it a comfortable way of withdrawing?</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Compulsive?</p> <p><br /></p> <p>An incarnation of self harm?</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Does it help you avoid situations?</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Is it a controllable when much else is out of control?</p> <p><br /></p> <p>For many, the gym becomes a sanctuary of likeminded people.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>A place to positively vent, clear your head, and feel a sense of control in an otherwise chaotic world.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>While exercise can absolutely offer therapeutic benefits, it’s not therapy. </p> <p><br /></p> <p>If you have an opportunity to listen, please spare a moment to drop the podcast a review.</p>
