Sober Holiday Activities in Los Alamitos, Cypress, Seal Beach, Rossmoor and Long Beach
Clean and Sober Holidays 2022
Recovery Supportive Holiday Events
Holidays present huge opportunities for building stronger sober supportive relationships and to practice recovery building skills. When triggers are presented in a way that bring you face-to-face with emptiness, craving or loneliness, this is the exact moment to call a friend, go to a meeting, or connect with a sober friend or sponsor.
Remember that you help others by participating in each of your sobriety- helping builds your recovery!
Too often we learned that alcohol and other drugs eased anxieties we might have when relating to others, or they provided an immediate relief and easy pastime. The emptiness and/or regrets of overindulgence or worse weren’t enough to guard against the first drink or drug.
Establishing new relationships and practices is difficult and rewarding. Write down a weekly schedule of social holiday events with others. Bookend slippery or triggering places and events with a meeting and take a sober friend.
