Celebrating Recovery - Recovered 792

Our generous Recovered Podcast Community allows us to be self supporting and not rely on outside contributions.  If you would like to join us, there are two ways.

1. Episode Sponsorship  We will recognize you by first name only at the top, mid, and end of the episode.  Any amount will qualify.
2. Premium Membership  This is the single most effective way to support the show.  Watch the video in its entirety and learn how to become Premium

The Recovered Podcast Community is not a glum lot.  They contribute to the show and what they share is exactly what someone else needs to hear.  The new guy needs to hear your story.  So honor your 12th step obligation by calling in and help the guy who has not yet gone to his first meeting, you may make the difference in his life.  There are two ways to add to the show:

1. Speakpipe Use your mobile or computer and leave a message.  This is the preferred method because the sound quality is excellent.
2. 1-734-288-7510 is our voice message line.

Addicts are sometimes reluctant to self-congratulate,
partly out of concern that they won’t be able to
continue living up to their own expectations.
But celebrating your recovery serves a number of valuable functions.
Even years into recovery,
celebrating reminds you
where you were,
how far you’ve come and
how easy it is to fall back.
When life gets stressful, or
you’ve disappointed yourself or someone else,
circling back to your recovery can be a reminder
that you’ve faced bigger hurdles in the past and prevailed.

We are going to talk about 5 different ways to celebrate your recovery
