Loosid Sober Tip of the Day February 27

Much like we can’t win today’s game on yesterday’s home run, we can’t stay sober today on yesterday’s sobriety.

During our active addiction, so many of us spent every day repeating the same rituals on a daily basis. It became such a ritual that we didn’t even realize the negative effects that were taking place as a result of our actions.

In recovery, we need to incorporate the same daily practice in order to stay emotionally sober.

For many of us, prayer and meditation has been a non-negotiable that we have learned to practice every morning when we arise.

Many of us do the same throughout the day and before we retire at night.

Some other activities that can set our day right are reading from spiritual texts.

For those in a 12-Step program, we may read 12-Step literature each morning.

We may also attend a meeting of likeminded others on a daily basis.

We may also reach out to people within our support network each day.

If you have not incorporated a daily practice into your recovery, there is no time like the present.

If you don’t know how or where to start, know you are not alone. Ask our community below for suggestions.

How did this tip resonate with you? If you already have a daily practice, share with the community below what you do on a daily basis. There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

I have a daily morning routine to start my day of right. First I pray the serenity prayer, 7th step prayer and a morning prayer. I then read recovery literature such as loosid's sober tip of the day, AA daily reflection and NA just for today. I then journal to get my mind right about the happenings of the previous day and what o have going on for that day. This is a morning ritual. I do feel I need to incorporate my step 10 into my evening as well but I also feel I'm doing pretty well these days

We can take on habits that do not involve alcohol and drugs and these new "habits" can be the routine of the day paving the way to newer understanding of the Grace of God.

God bless you all...
