Manage episode 384067154 series 3484914
WELCOME! to the Awake and Sober Podcast!!!
With the holidays quickly approaching, we decided to let you know about some of our best techniques in order to help you maintain and even thrive in your recovery.
On this week's episode, we will discuss and encourage the implementation of a relapse prevention plan, the importance of setting and maintaining healthy boundaries, and how to practice staying connected to YOUR recovery program.
Additionally, we touch on topics such as, focusing on the true meaning of the holidays, communicating your needs to your loved ones, the subtle art of saying NO, and also how to begin new, healthy traditions.
Through all of these topics, SELF CARE is the most important aspect of maintaining your physical and mental health!
So, join us for a tremendous holiday awareness show and don't hesitate to send us any questions you might have or even ideas for future episodes!
We truly appreciate all of the feedback we receive from our viewers, and don't forget to enjoy the small things during this holiday season!
We hope you enjoy the episode and don't forget to email us at info@awakeandsober.org for any information or questions you might have!
A mainstay of all of our recovery stories is being completely honest with our support teams but most importantly, honest with ourselves. How do we do that?
The answer is simple, we journal about our experiences, ideas, and goals. If you are anything like us, then that means you journal A LOT and take a bunch of notes, so don't you deserve a great writing instrument?
We think you do, and we are happy to announce...
