Wake Up – Day 1
🧘 Mindful Reflections + Recovery Tools
“The craving waits in silence.”Sometimes the loudest temptations don’t shout. They lurk in quiet rituals: opening a cabinet, scrolling a phone, driving past an old haunt. Recovery asks us to listen beneath the silence. To breathe instead of bolt. Today, notice the quiet cravings—the ones that come dressed as routine. When they arise, anchor yourself with 3 deep breaths, name the craving without judgment, and ask: “What’s the deeper need here?”Let breath answer what impulse cannot.
🛠 Recovery Tool:The Whisper Inventory —Write down the three most silent, sneaky cravings that showed up today. Beneath each, ask:- What feeling was I avoiding?- What would compassion offer instead?
