Happiness is a habit I will develop. The moment we step into sobriety, we are a blank slate ready to fill with new thoughts and new experiences. As strange as it may seem, this is the perfect time for us to begin to develop the habit of happiness.

Broughton Boone dives into the third affirmation statement from Women for Sobriety: 'Happiness is a habit I will develop. Happiness is created, not waited for'. Boone unpacks what this statement means and offers practical advice on how to cultivate happiness as you navigate early sobriety.
She talks about the power of being present, finding joy in everyday moments, and making a conscious choice to embrace positivity over negativity. Boone also highlights the significance of momentary happiness and how it can help you overcome emotional confusion and set healthy boundaries. By focusing on these small bursts of joy, you can build a foundation for lasting inner contentment. This episode is a heartfelt guide for anyone looking to bring more happiness into their recovery journey.
