Letting go of the past
Page 86

"It is not where we were that counts, but where we are going."

Basic Text, p. 23

When we first find recovery, some of us feel shame or despair at calling ourselves "addicts." In the early days, we may be filled with both fear and hope as we struggle to find new meaning in our lives. The past may seem inescapable and overpowering. It may be hard to think of ourselves in any way other than the way we always have.

While memories of the past can serve as reminders of what's waiting for us if we use again, they can also keep us stuck in a nightmare of shame and fear. Though it may be difficult to let go of those memories, each day in recovery can bring us that much farther away from our active addiction. Each day, we can find more to look forward to and less to punish ourselves for.

In recovery, all doors are open to us. We have many choices. Our new life is rich and full of promise. While we cannot forget the past, we don't have to live in it. We can move on.

Just for Today: I will pack my bags and move out of my past into a present filled with hope.

Sometimes healing looks like starting over with God.
Letting go of the past…
Trusting His plan…
And remembering that His grace is bigger than our mistakes.

With God, every day is a chance to rise again. ✝️💛

✨ Self-Care Saturday ✨

Recovery isn’t just about staying sober — it’s about learning how to take care of yourself in healthy, loving ways. For many of us, that’s something we’re learning for the very first time.

Today at EmberRise, we’re reminding our women that self-care can be simple:
🌿 Take a walk outside
📖 Spend a few quiet minutes journaling
🙏 Say a prayer or practice gratitude
🫶 Laugh with the girls in the house
💧 Drink some water and rest

Healing happens when we slow down and treat ourselves with the same kindness we give others.

What is one thing you’re doing for yourself today? 💛

Go get the cake!
And Happy Birthday to our Jodi!
We love you!

Celebrating sobriety matters. Not just the big milestones—every choice, every morning you show up for yourself, every quiet win no one else sees. Your progress deserves recognition, joy, and yes… cake. 🎂💛

What are you celebrating today?

We are so fortunate for the food donations that we received from the community.
 Here’s a recipe from ChatGPT to utilize the frozen leftover biscuits we get from several places, including McDonald's and Chick-fil-A, and the abundance of apples from Whole Foods Market.

Use lots of cinnamon and sugar and the recovery house will smell amazing!

ChatGPT helps you get answers, find inspiration, and be more productive.

At EmberRise Women’s Recovery House, we are starting a Positive – No Complaint Challenge 🙌✨💐

Complaining can become a habit. In recovery, we’re learning that our words matter. Our attitudes matter. What we speak, we feed. When we constantly focus on what’s wrong, we stay stuck. But when we choose gratitude and a positive mindset — even on the hard days — we grow.

A positive attitude doesn’t mean pretending life is perfect. It means choosing strength over negativity. It means finding solutions instead of sitting in problems. It means healing out loud.

This week, we’re challenging ourselves to pause before we complain… and replace it with perspective. 💛

Growth isn’t always comfortable — but neither is staying the same.

Who’s joining us? 🌷🌻🌻💐

Healing isn’t just about quitting what hurt you. It’s about changing how you see yourself and your future. A healthy, positive attitude in recovery isn’t fake happiness — it’s choosing hope on the hard days. Your mindset can either keep you stuck or carry you forward. Choose forward.

More abundance at EmberRise Women’s Recovery tonight.
After Wednesday night’s community dinner of Italian Parmesan, chicken and broccoli and mashed potatoes, we prepped overnight egg strata.

We are so fortunate to have SCREAM Ministries donate so much wonderful nutritious food from Whole Foods Market… tomorrow’s strata is using up leftover challah. No waste, full bellies.

Thank you to Julia and Larry for the very special farm fresh eggs! 🍳🥚🐓
