If there was anything I could tell a newcomer to sobriety was that this is your sobriety and you have to own it.
The holiday season can be a minefield for those in recovery, but it doesn't have to be a time of stress and temptation. In this episode of 'The Recovered Life Show', hosts Damon Frank and Kristina Dennis bring together a panel of seasoned sober individuals—Jamie, Steven, and Rich—to share their hard-earned wisdom on navigating the festive period without compromising sobriety.
With over 100 years of combined sobriety, these experts offer practical tips and heartfelt advice that can make all the difference. Rich emphasizes the importance of taking ownership of your sobriety, noting, 'this is your sobriety and you have to own it'. It's a reminder that staying sober is a personal journey that requires proactive measures. One particularly clever tip involves subtly turning your glass upside down during toasts to signal your commitment to staying sober.
Steven adds another layer of insight by suggesting the use of imagery as a deterrent, encouraging listeners to visualize the consequences of drinking the next morning. The panel also dives into strategies for handling both business and personal gatherings, stressing the importance of having a support system in place. From avoiding high-risk situations to leaning on friends and family for support, these tips are invaluable for anyone looking to enjoy the holidays without alcohol.
Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this journey for years, this episode offers a treasure trove of advice to help you stay on track and enjoy the festive season with confidence.
