What I've learned is that...

What I've learned is that relapsing is part of recovering. There isn’t one simple road to healing. You may have to try different paths to find the one that works for you. If you're struggling right now remember, you’ve fought difficulty times before and you can do it again.

What you're thinking about...

What you're thinking about today is either helping you grow or holding you back. Give your attention to what is most important and what will move you forward. And make the decision to let go of what does not.

Whenever you find yourself looking back...

Whenever you find yourself looking back, don’t think of the pain you went through but rather the strength you gained. And although you’ve been through a lot, you’ve grown a lot too. You’ve come along way so give yourself credit for what you've done and continue to do every day.

 

Don't be your own enemy...

Don't be your own enemy, allowing negative thoughts and how they make you feel and act, hold you back. Instead load up on healthy thoughts - thoughts that help you feel and act better and you will in time create great things for your life.

Give yourself some...

Give yourself some kindness and understanding. Self-compassion during difficult times is vital for our mental well-being. Compassion for ourselves doesn't diminish our capacity to care for others. Rather it enhances our ability to be even more compassionate toward others.

Be open to all the options...

Be open to all the options that are available to you today and know that getting things wrong is part of getting them right. You have permission to change your mind. Just because you choose a direction doesn't mean you're committed to that path forever.

Sometimes we need to...

Sometimes we need to journey to the deepest, darkest, scariest, most painful places in order to reach the next level. That is what happened to me, but years later my life is better than ever and I love every day. And so if I can do it you can make your life better too.
