I really understood about self-care and making myself a priority, just because I know that if I'm okay, everything around me is better.
Imagine living in a world where being constantly busy is the norm, and putting others first is almost second nature. In this episode of 'Rise and Recover', Nancy and Kathy dive deep into the often-overlooked topic of self-care in addiction recovery. Both women share their heartfelt stories of how neglecting their own needs led to unhealthy habits and dangerous behaviors.
Nancy opens up about her regret over not learning the importance of self-care earlier in life, but how making it a priority now has transformed her well-being. Kathy reflects on her past as a 'part-time good doobie', using drugs to cope, and the journey she took to break free from those habits. They discuss the power of positive self-talk and the necessity of changing old patterns to make self-care a central part of recovery.
From rest and exercise to mindfulness practices, they explore various ways to relieve stress and nurture oneself. This episode is a must-listen for anyone in recovery or supporting someone who is, offering practical advice and heartfelt encouragement to put yourself first. Tune in to discover how prioritizing self-care can be a game-changer in your recovery journey.
