RESOURCES FOR EPISODE

This week, ask yourself:

"Where am I spending energy that I don't truly have?"

Then choose one thing to do differently.

Maybe it's leaving a gathering early.

Maybe it's taking a nap.

Maybe it's ordering takeout.

Maybe it's saying:

"I can't do that this week."

One small adjustment.

One act of support.

One reminder that you don't have to earn recovery.
