QUICK TIPS for Life After Recovery Treatment

Your past can be one of your greatest teachers. In fact, the best way to make progress is to know your starting point. For those in recovery, understanding where you come from, be it the experiences you've endured or the mistakes you may have made, plays a major role in your healing journey. 

Acceptance of the past is the key to unlocking freedom in recovery. Once you've embraced your past, you're ready to take the next step toward healing and freedom. This newfound freedom allows you to shape a new life for yourself. But what does life look like after recovery treatment?

In this episode, Host Dr. Jason Powers answers your questions about returning to "normal" life and offers a few quick tips for life after recovery treatment. One of the most important things is leaning into what works best for you. While many of us share similar experiences, your healing journey is specific to you. 

Not every aspect of recovery may speak to you, and that's okay. As Dr. Powers shares, the best way to find sobriety and continue this path of healing is to find meaning in "healthy" distractions—not ones that turn away from challenges but ways to help you grow despite them. 

Whether it's journaling, meditation, gratitude practices, gardening, learning to play a new instrument, baking, or a variety of new skills and hobbies, finding what sparks joy and healing into your life is one of the greatest rewards from sobriety!
