Located in the heart of Missouri, this extended care sober living program for men focuses on a structured, long-term approach to healing.

A recent group outing on the Katy Trail, where several residents explored the scenic route on e-bikes, was more than just a recreational activity—it was a reminder of how essential movement and nature are to mental and emotional wellness during recovery.

Nature and Movement: A Powerful Duo in Recovery

Early sobriety often means relearning how to handle stress, regulate emotions, and find enjoyment without substances. Physical activity—especially when paired with the calming effects of nature—can be a game-changer.

Exercise releases natural endorphins, improving mood and reducing cravings.

Spending time outdoors has been shown to lower anxiety and increase mental clarity.

Group outings build camaraderie and confidence, strengthening a resident’s support system.

Experiences like the e-bike ride give residents the chance to rediscover joy and build new, healthy habits that support long-term success.

Healing, One Step (or Pedal) at a Time

Whether it’s a hike, a bike ride, or simply a walk in the fresh air, Learn to Live Recovery encourages residents to engage with life in new, life-affirming ways. Recovery isn’t just about what you leave behind—it’s about all the new things you gain.
