1. Coming to SR (duh!)
2. Working the 12 steps for codies - (I'm still on step 1)
3. Al-anon meetings
4. When in obsession mode - visualizing myself stepping out of it.
5. Playing the tape all the way through (after many cycles of "knowing" if I re-act this way or that way..... x will happen.
6. Seeking out my enjoyments.
7. Letting go and letting God
8. Reading about addiction and codependency.
9. Before looking at someone else - looking in the mirror.
10. Recognizing that dealing with an addict means to expect the unexpected.
11. Looking at my part in it all.... my role.
I WAS doing hot yoga - boy that helped SO much...... haven't done it for a few months - thinking I need to get back into that. Same with keeping my schedule full....
Recognizing that it's progress not perfection in my recovery. It takes time.....

Abundance -
those are all good things and pretty much what I do too. Also....
1. read a daily meditation in the morning
2. connect to HP and ask for guidance
3. give back when I can
4. review my day before I go to sleep
5. keep a gratitude list
What I need to be better at is self care.....getting sleep, exercise, and eating correctly. I've let every bit of that go as I have dealt with all the drama and trauma of addiction and sobriety. NOT GOOD. Today - I will begin to take steps to take better care of me.
Glad that you posted this!
