In this episode of 'Recovery Talks', Lea Wetzel and Bill Hartford, both veterans themselves, open up about their personal journeys and offer practical advice on navigating this potentially stressful period. They discuss the importance of setting boundaries, respecting others in recovery, and finding ways to volunteer as methods to cope with holiday stress.
Lea and Bill also highlight the significance of maintaining routines, getting enough sleep, and practicing small acts of kindness to keep the holiday blues at bay. Their candid conversation provides a treasure trove of tips that can benefit anyone in recovery, not just veterans. Bill's reflection, 'It hasn't been perfect, but it's been way better than it was when I was using', serves as a beacon of hope for those on the path to recovery.
Tune in to 'Recovery Talks' for an episode filled with empathy, wisdom, and actionable advice for making it through the holidays with your recovery intact.
