NeuLife clients and staff enjoyed a therapeutic outing to Hickory Point Park for fishing and a delicious picnic lunch. Fishing is by nature a reflective and meditative activity that forces you to slow down and enjoy your surroundings. Therapeutic experts claim that, fishing helps to take a person's mind off the day-to-day worries because it requires focus; it engages small muscle groups we don’t normally use and helps us build fine motor skills.
Fishing is also a fantastic (and safe) outdoor leisure activity for someone who has suffered a TBI - it has the ability to reduce the effects of TBI.
It’s a great way to be outdoors without sacrificing or putting your health at risk. If you don’t have any fishing buddies you can find fishing aficionados in your area. Search for Facebook groups or Google fishing organizations - there are plenty of local groups out there!
