Loosid Sober Tip of the Day January 03

Sober Tips
#1

Resentment is the #1 offender. It kills more alcoholics and addicts than anything.

We talk about resentment frequently in the daily tips for this very reason. Why? Because repetition is the mother of skill.

In the same way we need to remind ourselves what works, it is equally as powerful to remind ourselves what does not work.

Most of use reading this have a resentment or two in our back pockets. Even if we have done the work to free ourselves of resentments, so many of us hold onto a few as we feel we are not ready to let them go.

Just for today, make a decision to let them go. You are drinking the poison waiting for the other person to suffer. Choose not to suffer today.

I most definitely needed this. . . A friend is struggling... But doesn't see the pattern taking effect... So, here I am building resentment cause she won't listen ... Today. I'll let her have her experience. And still show up with love and kindness not fear, anger, and control. While still keeping boundaries to guard my peace, sanity, and recovery. "Let Them"
