You don’t have to sabotage a future life in recovery over a current crisis. Mistakes, messes, and setbacks don’t mean the end of a painting, and they won’t stop you from flourishing in life either. Life is constantly building, doing, feeling, and being. Throughout our lifetimes, we may lead many lives. Each of them will ask us to start something new.

Make space to honor the endings that made space for your beginnings. Adventure, experience, loss, relationships, and chance will carry you through their journeys before a new one begins. Instead of simple tips or certain help, consider the power of Harbor House these five tips to create possibilities for your new beginning. Even in uncertainty for what the future holds, hope will bloom. Spend a moment absorbing these prompts and take what you need to support your next move. The beginning, believe it or not, is the easiest part.

Helping People Recover and Rebuild Their Lives

The complexity of both endings and beginnings in your life can also exist in your heart. Feeling a balance and inviting the pain alongside the excitement is not a failure or a step back. Meditation or other practices to spend time with acceptance and observation may help you move through the duality of new beginnings. Inspiring words take up little space yet leave a lasting imprint on your thoughts.

There may never come a day where you don’t have to battle your mental illness. But I promise, as you get used to it it begins to come naturally. It won’t be plain sailing; there will be good days and bad days, but the bad days always pass, ready for a brand new day.

  1. Find space in your life each day to incorporate these tips that you choose to carry with you.
  2. It’s scary and mysterious and exciting and confusing.
  3. Imagine doing a jigsaw puzzle without seeing the picture.
  4. There may never come a day where you don’t have to battle your mental illness.
  5. You do not have to be great or even good at something for it to have a worthwhile benefit in this part of your story.

When applying these prompts to your life in recovery, listen to how they resonate. Look for the echo of intentional connection in your new beginnings and the habits that support you as you move toward it. Though it may feel like an all-consuming presence, fear is just a state of being.

Imagine doing a jigsaw puzzle without seeing the picture. You have to propel yourself into the abyss of the unknown and see what awaits. February 4, 2008, I made a call to a drug dealer; I was hopeless and wanted to die. I bought a large quantity of drugs and the plan was to kill myself.

Words to live by can be a question, a challenge, or simply a reminder to yourself about the life you intend to build for yourself in recovery. You may find quotes or ideas in a beloved film or the pages of a novel. The words that put color in your world may come from inspiring figures the world over or loved ones close to your heart. It’s scary and mysterious and exciting and confusing.
