💙 Christmas Isn’t Easy for Everyone 💙
A gentle reminder:
Christmas can poke at old wounds.
Loneliness. Loss. Cravings. Chaos. Noise. Family stuff.
If you’re struggling, you’re not weak, you’re human.
Do what you need to stay safe.
Listen to your body.
Rest if you can.
Ask for help if you need it.
And remember: you matter.

🎄 We’re Having a Nap - Back 29th December 🎄
We’re closed for the Christmas break
BUT
we’re back on 29th December for a warm cuppa, a decompress, and a place to breathe.
You’re not alone. You’re always part of this weird little Recovery Space family.

🥁 NEW IN JANUARY: Rhythm to Recovery Songwriting Workshop 🎤
We’re VERY excited about this one
Starting January, Wednesdays 1–2pm, the incredible Phoebe + a music producer will be helping us create a SONG about the real barriers to treatment.
You do NOT need to sing.
Or be musical.
Or even rhyme.
Just show up with your truth.
It’s going to be powerful, messy, and magic.

What is Trauma-Informed Practice?
🧘‍♀️ Trauma-Informed: The Recovery Space Way 🧘‍♂️
Trauma-informed practice means:
💚 We don’t ask “What’s wrong with you?”
💚 We ask “What happened? What do you need?”
💚 No judgement
💚 Choice, voice, safety, compassion
💚 You can sit in silence or chat absolute rubbish, both are valid
We don’t fix people.
We create a space where people can breathe again.

What is Recovery?
🌱 Recovery = Being Human (Not Just Addiction) 🌱
The Recovery Space isn’t just for people in addiction recovery.
We’re all recovering from something:
💛 anxiety
💛 trauma
💛 burnout
💛 life being a bit of a goblin (that’s me)
We offer:
📌 Citizens Advice drop-ins
📌 Food & pantry support
📌 Warm space
📌 Peer chats & cuppas
📌 Zero judgement, zero pressure
If you need connection, this is your sign.

🎄 Mindfulness Wednesday: Bauble Decorating Chaos Begins 🎄
Today’s mindset: ✨ Festive mindfulness ✨
12–4pm we’re decorating baubles …. badly, beautifully, and everything in between.
Glitter everywhere. Paint on faces. Someone will spell their name wrong (it’ll be me).
Come be calm(ish), creative, and connected.

BREAKING: Santa has confirmed he is sober-curious this year and is considering swapping sherry for a brew.
We fully support him.
If you’re wandering about this weekend feeling a bit wobbly, festive, lonely, or a Scrooge, remember you’re not alone.
