So I guess, if I'm just kind of stepping back from it, like the balance is created when I have the best of both worlds, you know when I have the flow and when I have a little bit of um when I have that, I guess that's like when we're removing alcohol, right.
Ever wondered how to find that sweet spot between balance and flow in your recovery journey? In this episode of 'The Unruffled Podcast', hosts Sondra Primeaux and Tammi Salas tackle this very question. They dive into what balance and flow feel like, especially when you're trying to stay creative and sober. Spoiler alert: Sometimes balance feels a bit 'meh', and that's okay!
The duo also discuss the 'all or nothing' mindset and how it can create mental stress, particularly when trying to moderate. One standout quote from Annie Grace about the 'mental anguish of moderation' really hits home. But can you have flow without a bit of balance? The hosts believe you can, but it requires some secure boundaries. Tammi suggests that having a well-defined perimeter allows everything inside to flow smoothly, without causing burnout.
Sondra adds that balance isn't about perfection but about constant recalibration. Throughout the episode, they share personal tools from their 'Unruffled Toolbox', including writing routines, morning rituals, and menu planning. These practical tips are designed to help you find your own balance and flow. The episode emphasizes the importance of community and support, offering a hopeful message for anyone in recovery.
Whether you're into meditation, writing, or other creative pursuits, Sondra and Tammi encourage you to find what works for you and stick with it. Tune in to learn how to achieve a sustainable and fulfilling creative practice while maintaining your sobriety.
