‘Tis the season when many feast. Time to remind myself that the way I eat in Recovery makes me happy, joyous and free.
In Recovery, when I weigh and measure my food and employ the tools my 12-step program for food addiction offers, I feel alright with the world.
Even in times of stress, even when I’m angry, lonely or tired, even when I’m sad or scared… there is a foundation of equanimity. I know to ask for help. I turn to prayer. I feel love for other people, for Nature, and for a Deeper Wisdom. I’m grateful for ordinary miracles.
May we all be well, happy and peaceful… one day at a time.
Love & Light,
Valerie

As always, a beautifully written note that is so true and important for everyone! We must be atuned to our own bodies and treat them with respect …..one day at a time!

A lovely post, inspiring words. Thank you dear friend. May your Christmas be merry and bright as well.
Thank you, Em.
Our Christmas HAS been merry and bright! The sun is shining. There is a breeze and the air has a slight chill.
I’ve been on 3 walks with Miranda already today. Good for both of us.
Our lunch with family and friends was extraordinarily pleasant. I’m still smiling.
Take care.
Love & Light,
Valerie
