When you're feeling those four emotions- hungry, angry, lonely and tired- you're focusing on what you're lacking, and those are the times that we turn to our old vices to try to fill those needs, fill those things that you are lacking.
Ever feel like you're on the edge of relapse but can't quite put your finger on why? Joshua Hill, host of 'The Sobriety Short Show', breaks down the H.A.L.T. acronym in this insightful episode, offering a straightforward tool to help you stay on track. H.A.L.T. stands for hungry, angry, lonely, and tired—four emotions that can sneak up on you and derail your progress if you're not careful.
Hill explains how these feelings can make you more vulnerable to relapse and shares practical tips to manage them effectively. For instance, if hunger strikes, it's time to grab a healthy snack. Feeling angry? Reach out to a friend and vent. Loneliness creeping in? Find some company. Exhausted? Give yourself permission to rest. Hill's advice is simple yet powerful: by recognizing these emotional states and taking action, you can prevent a potential relapse before it happens.
This episode is packed with actionable strategies that anyone in recovery can use to stay self-aware and proactive. It's like having a mini-therapy session in your pocket, perfect for those moments when you need a quick boost of wisdom and encouragement. Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for years, Hill's insights are invaluable for maintaining your sobriety.
Tune in and equip yourself with the tools to recognize and manage your triggers, ensuring you stay strong on your journey.
