Holidays, Loneliness, Self Soothing - How Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years affect Addiction and Recovery

Text and Be Heard

Imagine the holiday season not as a time of joy, but as an emotional labyrinth for those navigating addiction recovery. Feelings of isolation can intensify as Thanksgiving fades and the more intimate holidays of Christmas and New Year's approach, leaving many feeling stranded without close family ties or a partner to celebrate with. This episode explores these emotional complexities and offers strategies to connect with supportive communities, like the Recovery Freedom Circle, to help foster a sense of belonging. We discuss how spiritual activities can provide solace and connection during these challenging times, shifting the focus from loneliness to community and healing.

The holidays can be a minefield of temptations for those in recovery, from alcohol and gambling to more dangerous substances. We tackle the pitfalls of holiday excess and emphasize staying grounded in your emotions to enjoy life without overindulgence. Don't let the festive season derail your progress; we provide resources through our YouTube channel and podcasts, encouraging a transformative journey with our 18-week Recovery Freedom Circle program. Start the new year with a renewed sense of purpose and connection, working towards personal growth, recovery, and spreading unconditional love.
