Putting myself first

I've noticed that it's become easier to put myself first in my sobriety. I wasn't feeling well today and instead of powering through and going to work,I decided to take a sick day and let my body rest and recover. I didn't feel the guilt I used to about missing work because I know I am doing what I need to for myself. It feels good to put my needs first without feeling guilty - one of the many blessings I've gained in my recovery :heart:

Good for you. It’s a selfish program. Whatever it takes to put you in a good place is what it’s all about. :+1:

Heck yeah! You have to make sure you are healthy all around. Mind body and soul. Sobriety can be hard… it’s even harder if you don’t take care of your health.

Self-care is important. It's not selfish. I know how hard it can be to make the decision you made. Kudos to you.
