PACE Yourself: Alcohol, Addiction and Exercise provides qualitative
research about the influence of exercise on alcohol use disorder
(AUD) recovery. In addition, the author explains how someone can
benefit from exercise and explores how the PACE method could help
keep new addictions at bay. PACE is an acronym for Proactive
Awareness Controlling Excess. The author has developed an app of
the same name which is available in the Apple store. Exercise is
medicine when it comes to the recovering body and mind of an
alcoholic. Physiological and psychological changes as a result of
moving the body contribute to prolonged sobriety and deter the
cyclical threat the nature of alcohol abuse can pose upon person in
recovery. The struggle to never become powerless to alcohol again
can be kept at bay when the benefits of exercise over power the
benefits alcohol used to have. However, the addictive mind can find
a new habit to replace the old one. The PACE method proposes steps
to become aware of replacement type behaviors with the
understanding that anyone can become addicted to anything.
