Addiction and mental health often go hand in hand. In fact, 9 out of 10 of the athletes who joined Terminator Foundation last year reported struggling with concurrent mental health issues before entering our program. For those battling these challenges, the workplace can add even more pressure. For many, balancing work, life, and recovery feels overwhelming. But there is hope. A study published in The Lancet Psychiatry found that regular exercise can reduce poor mental health days by over 40%. At Terminator Foundation, we believe that recovery is about more than overcoming addiction—it’s about healing your whole self, inside and out. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or mental health, we want you to know this: You are not alone. Recovery is possible, and you are worth it. Let us walk this path with you—one step, one day at a time. #WorldMentalHealthDay #mentalhealthatwork #MentalHealthAwareness #AddictionRecovery #WorkLifeBalance #ExerciseForMentalHealth #HolisticHealing #FitnessForRecovery #MentalHealthSupport #WellnessJourney #MindfulnessPractice #SupportAndRecovery

None of what we do would be possible without our team of amazing coaches. Whether it's guiding our athletes through their very first run, teaching them how to bike or swim, or supporting them through the ups and downs of recovery, our coaches are there every step of the way. 🏃♀️🚴♂️🏊♂️ They’re training 5 days a week, helping our athletes see a different side of themselves and pushing them beyond what they thought possible. No matter where someone starts in their athletic or recovery journey, our coaches are committed to making sure they reach new heights—physically and mentally. We couldn't do this without you! #CoachAppreciation #RecoveryJourney #GratefulForOurCoaches #TerminatorFoundation #AthleteSupport #FitnessCoaching #MentalStrength #addiction #mentalhealth #YouCanRecover

Today, we pause to honor the survivors, families, and communities who have been deeply impacted by the trauma of residential schools. This day is not just about looking back—it's about moving forward with compassion, understanding, and commitment to healing. At Terminator Foundation, we believe in the power of community, resilience, and recovery. As we work to support individuals battling addiction and mental health struggles, we also recognize the unique challenges that Indigenous communities face in their journey toward recovery. Today, let’s take a moment to listen, learn, and reflect on how we can each play a part in reconciliation. Together, we can build a future where every voice is heard, and everyone in our community is supported. Please note that our office will be closed today in observance of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. #NDTR #TruthAndReconciliation #EveryChildMatters #HealingTogether #TerminatorFoundation #NationalDayForTruthAndReconciliation

Why Terminator? Because we are relentless when it comes to fighting for your life and your freedom from addiction and mental health challenges. If you have been struggling with addiction, or if you have ever struggled with it, you know that addiction is all-consuming, it’s torturous, and it will take everything from you until it takes your life. At Terminator, we believe that YOU are far more capable than you think you are. We believe that engaging your body and challenging your physical strength, endurance, and grit, ignites your brain to achieve what was once thought to be impossible. Whether you're trying to overcome your addiction for the first time - maybe you’ve tried multiple times before and kept slipping - or maybe you just want more out of your life and your recovery - We believe you can have it! We know our ABRT Program can take you there. Beyond your current circumstances, what you believe about yourself and your abilities. Beyond your addiction, your mental health challenges, anxiety and depression. Beyond that tape that plays in your head on repeat telling you this is as far as you’ll ever go - that recovery can't happen for you - that you don’t have what it takes. I’m here to tell you right now – that’s a lie. And we can prove it. So why Terminator? Because your life is WORTH IT, and the truth is you can recover. #TerminatorFoundation #Addiction #AddictionFree #MentalHealthWarrior #RecoveryJourney #EndTheStigma #YouAreCapable #BreakTheCycle #BelieveInYourself #RecoveryIsPossible #YouAreWorthIt
