One day at a time one is that five words something okay? It's a lot packed into those five words

Welcome to episode 34 of the Recovery Show. This episode is brought to you by

Diane and Ruth. They used the donation button on our website. Thank you Diane and

Ruth for your generous contributions.

This episode is for you.

We are friends and family members of alcoholics and addicts who have found a path to serenity

and happiness.

We who live or have lived with the seemingly hopeless problem of addiction understand is perhaps few others can.

So much depends on our own attitudes and we believe that changed attitudes can aid recovery.

We had planned to talk about self-care today and some recent

experiences shown us that the slogan one day at a time can be an important aspect of

caring for ourselves. We're going to focus on that slogan in this episode. We will

take up the larger topic of self-care in a later episode. Do you often find yourself

spending all your time worrying? Do you fear the future or resent the past? Is the present

moment something you simply don't have time to bother with? Well let's talk about it.

Before we begin, we would like to state that though we may be in a 12-step program, we represent ourselves rather than the program.

During this show, we will share our own experiences as they relate to the topic of one day at a time.

The opinions expect here are strictly

those of the person who gave them, take what you like and leave the rest. We hope that you

will find something in our sharing that speaks to your life. My name is Spencer and I will be your host today. Joining

me as co-host Swaitha. How are you today, Swaitha?

Great, thanks Spencer. And next to Swaitha is our co-host to Kelly.
