Emotional Sobriety

Strengthening Our Recovery Workshop

Presenter: Hannah Rose, MS, NCC, LCPC

As Thicht Naht Hanh says, rather than attempting to manage our lives by watering the leaves, we must start internally by watering the roots. Thus, the first part of this process must be identifying where our roots grow, and what nourishes them.

For Hannah Rose, a relapse counselor at Ashley, her roots lie in mindfulness and meditation practices, yoga, communicating effectively and directly with loved ones, setting boundaries, and drinking iced coffee. Hannah has learned time and time again that self-care, like recovery, must come first, or nothing seems to come second. In recovery we have the privilege and honor of delving into a process of personal development, while also getting to bear witness to others’ spiritual journeys and internal growth. This process can fill us with gratitude, but it can also be incredibly draining. Remember to take care of oneself, whatever that may look like.

This is a free event and open to everyone. For more information contact Alumni Community Services at 410.273.2276 or alumni@ashleytreatment.org.
