Let your mind spin down. ⠀
You don’t always have to be ‘up’ or ‘on.’ Learn to sit with yourself. ⠀
Renew your spirit by being kind to yourself. Treat yourself like you would a friend who is in this situation. See the difference? ⠀
Be that compassionate to yourself. ⠀
How are you going to take a time out today?⠀

Even in recovery, you will be broken. You don’t know what you don’t know! ⠀
Be teachable. Be open to new ideas. Look for solutions, not problems. ⠀
Work on your emotions, responses, thoughts, feelings, actions and decision making.⠀
Fight against false beliefs and cognitive distortions.⠀
Kick every emotional barrier to your success to the curb. ⠀
You get to choose who you want to be. You CAN be put back together.⠀
What do you want to learn today?⠀

So you get clean and sober (great job by-the-way).

So you get clean and sober (great job by-the-way). You’re riding the pink cloud. Life is freaking fantastic.⠀
But, you wonder why friends and family are still treating you like and outsider.⠀
You will ask why people aren’t just so damn proud of you. Why are people still being standoffish? Why do they treat you like you are invisible? ⠀
Get this; over an extended period you have lied, cheated, stolen, bent your values and morals, lived, breathed and dreamed about your substance use and abuse. ⠀
You have HURT people. ⠀
You need to stay the course in your recovery. The passing of time and repeated good decisions and actions will begin to rebuild the bridges you burned in addiction.⠀
What is one good decision you are going to make today? ⠀

Just breathe.⠀
Whatever is feeding your stress, fear, guilt, shame, anger, frustration, blame, or pity [add strong emotion here] – let it go.⠀
Be here, This moment. ⠀
Just focus on breathing in and out.⠀
Focus on one thing at a time. Don’t let the squirrels or bright shiny objects distract you. ⠀
You will freeze like a deer in the headlights.⠀
What are you going to focus on today?⠀
.⠀

What do you keep locked up inside?⠀
Are you chained to your addiction with no way to get free?⠀
Do you feel like a prisoner in your own body and mind?⠀
It takes one single decision to free yourself.⠀
Take the step. Decide to STOP. No more. Be done.⠀
Choose life, you’re worth it.⠀

Think about this quote for a minute.⠀
Where do you fit into this picture? Are you chasing something? Have you found it? Is it working? Do you feel better?⠀
Or, does addiction have you trapped in a never-ending cycle of insanity?⠀
The answer is within you. The thing you seek – will never be found in a drink or a drug.⠀
Are you done yet?⠀

Feel like you’re drowning? Are you preparing to sink into the murky depths of addiction and insanity? Are you reaching up for the sunlight? ⠀
Grab a lifeline today. Ask for help. Show up for yourself. Show up for treatment. Show up for recovery.⠀
Commit for 24 hours. And then another.⠀
Who are you going to reach out to today?⠀

Are you on the fence about recovery? Have you tried to moderate or stop your substance use? Did it work? How do you feel today?⠀
Guilt, shame, nausea, shakes, disordered thinking… Is this you?⠀
You have nothing to lose [except your life]. ⠀
Try a meeting. Try outpatient. Try inpatient. Try sober living. Reach out to someone. You are worth it. ⠀
What’s your next step?⠀

Stigma and discrimination is a major barrier to treatment for many struggling with substance abuse. Even in recovery, you will experience marginalization that stems from outdated beliefs that you chose addiction and are morally responsible, and that you are a second class citizen, that there is something wrong with you.⠀
You are NOT any of those things. You are a warrior. ⠀
Stand proud in your recovery. Shout it from the rooftops.⠀
How do you deal with ignorance in your day-to-day life?⠀

The first person you need to be a friend to is you

The first person you need to be a friend to is yourself. ⠀
⠀
Treat yourself well. Be empathetic and supportive. Listen to yourself, act on your need for self-care. Accept yourself wholeheartedly. ⠀
⠀
Remind yourself that you are enough. You are exactly who you need to be right now. Once you are your own best friend, it is time to share with others.⠀
⠀
What advice are you going to give yourself today?⠀

This is the night to leave out glasses of milk, a cookie and reindeer treats. ⠀
⠀
How many of you log into Santa tracker? Families gather to enjoy the festivities and follow traditions.⠀
⠀
If you are alone, or you can’t face family en masse, then this is a time to create your own rituals and traditions for the holidays. ⠀
⠀
Find ways to celebrate the season. Potlucks at AA, a dinner party, an alumni gathering. There are a lot of ways to survive the holidays without relapsing.⠀
⠀
What ritual or tradition are you attached to?⠀

Pat yourself on the back. You have made it through another year. ⠀

The holiday season is stressful, but it is also a time when things slow down. Use this time to rest your mind and body. It is getting cold, time for warm blankets and steaming mugs of hot beverages.⠀
⠀
Give yourself a break this week.⠀

What is your favorite thing about the holiday season?⠀

Small wins lead to big change. ⠀
⠀
Don’t set yourself up for failure. Be realistic about your current capabilities. Reaching major life goals involves planning, setting attainable milestones and being flexible when circumstances change. ⠀
⠀
The only way to grow is to attempt as many new things as you can. Pull out that bucket list and get started.⠀
⠀
What goal are you working towards?⠀

Holiday time is stressful. Social events are rife

Holiday time is stressful. Social events are rife with alcohol. Family gatherings are full of tension and unspoken expectations. Money is tight. You may feel lost in the seas of seasonal expectations.⠀
⠀
You do not have to go through this alone. This is the perfect time to surround yourself with your support group. Make those calls, be accountable, stay in touch.⠀
⠀
Get out of your own way and volunteer at local charities, join a committee, make alternative social arrangements. Host sober movie nights with the girls. Join a meet-up group and drag a friend along. ⠀
⠀
Don’t isolate yourself from the joy that can come from holiday festivities. You will find people like yourself who simply don’t drink when they go out.⠀
⠀
How do you survive the holiday season?⠀

Every day is a new start for you. ⠀
⠀
Dump the crap from yesterday. Any feelings of guilt for not completing tasks, disappointment in yourself, or beating yourself up for ‘not’ being good enough or failing to meet the expectations of others… shut that crap down.⠀
⠀
Set yourself up for a successful day, beginning with your mindset. If you believe you can do it, you can do it. Be positive.⠀

How do you start your day?⠀

In your addiction you complicated everything. When

In your addiction you complicated everything. When you enter recovery your mind is filled with chaos and disordered reasoning. It is difficult to identify what you are feeling, how you are keeping yourself stuck, where you want your life to go, or even why you are here.⠀
⠀
Keep it simple. Break things down into small chunks, or single sentences that your mind is able to process. ⠀
⠀
You didn’t end up in your addiction overnight, it took time and effort. Recovery is the same. At first, it is frustrating and hard. After a while, your mind will become clearer and clearer. Don’t give up. You can do it.⠀
⠀
What is something that you have achieved in recovery that you could not comprehend in addiction? ⠀

The universal pose for meditation, mindfulness, and serenity. The benefits of meditation are endless. ⠀
⠀
Just about every rehab or outpatient program has mediation. It is unavoidable in recovery. Somewhere, sometime, you will be asked to meditate.⠀
⠀
I didn’t ‘get’ meditation for years. I thought it was stupid and a waste of time. I never got any benefit out of it. Then, I went through a pain program where each day began with meditation. I finally learned how to do it properly, and could feel the calming sensation as my body went from fight or flight to a sense of wellbeing. ⠀
⠀
Try guided meditation on YouTube. Focus on your breathing. After a few minutes, you will feel your anxiety coming down. Spend a few minutes each day calming your mind.⠀
⠀
How is meditation for you?⠀

What do you love? Make a list of all the things that make you happy. Include people, places and things that touch your heart. Now go do MORE of them.⠀

Stop trying to be all put together and perfect all

Stop trying to be all put together and perfect all the time. Bad hair – don’t care. Dishes in the sink, toys on the floor, dust bunnies hiding under furniture, will all be there after you spend some time soothing your emotions. ⠀
⠀
Let it all go. Go and do something you want to do. Chores and tasks will still be there in a few hours. Go and have fun, connect with others, lose yourself in a book, binge watch Netflix, take a hike, or go get your favorite food.⠀
⠀
Sometimes it is a matter of walking away for a little while to get yourself back into balance. It’s ok to take time for yourself. You are only one person.⠀
⠀
How are you going to practice self-care today?⠀
