Curiosity and growth
Between gardening, meditation and running I've had realizations about ramping up my recovery lately:
1. I'm getting stronger and bouncing back quickly, mentally and physically.
2. I'm having more awareness of childhood and adult trauma I've been through, and dealing with it in very healthy ways.
3. I'm gaining skills and knowledge in many areas of recovery.
What's weird is going into Al-Anon wanting to help my family, finding out I needed to help myself, and now having new skills in helping my family that looks completely new. Living my best life + skills to enjoy time with family members and/or stand up to or walk away from situations, as needed.
