I want to understand more than be understood. I want to process resentments, not stockpile them.
As the holiday season rolls in, many in recovery find themselves navigating a minefield of triggers and temptations. Nelson H., the witty host of 'LOL Sober', knows this all too well. In this episode, he shares five practical tips to help you stay on track during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's. From attending meetings to carrying a sobriety token, Nelson's advice is both relatable and actionable.
He starts by suggesting a '45-in-90' plan—attending 45 meetings in 90 days—to keep your focus sharp. While 90 meetings in 90 days might be a stretch, this adjusted plan is more manageable and just as effective. Nelson also emphasizes the importance of having a sobriety reminder on hand, like an anniversary coin, to keep your journey front and center. Traveling during the holidays can be stressful, so Nelson advises finding moments of peace through walks or meditation.
He also touches on the power of listening and staying silent, even when family gatherings get heated. These simple yet powerful strategies can make a world of difference. Tune in to hear Nelson's humorous take on these tips and how they've helped him maintain his sobriety through the festive chaos.
