💡 Recovery Tip: Reset Your Daily Routine

After the hustle and changes of the holiday season, getting back into a daily routine can make a huge difference in recovery. Structure creates stability — and stability supports sobriety. 💛

Here are a few simple ways to reset your routine:
✔️ Wake up and go to bed at consistent times
✔️ Schedule meetings and recovery check-ins first
✔️ Plan meals and self-care into your day
✔️ Set small, realistic goals
✔️ End your day with reflection or gratitude

You don’t have to do everything at once. Start small, stay consistent, and build momentum one day at a time. 🙌

The Kingdom Living Gala ✨
The Kingdom Living Gala is an annual evening dedicated to celebrating transformation, resilience, and hope.
Each year, we gather with supporters, partners, and community members to honor the men and women who have committed to rebuilding their lives through recovery, accountability, and purpose. This night highlights the real impact of safe housing, structure, and community support — and the powerful change that happens when people are given the opportunity to start again.
The Gala is more than a formal dinner. It’s a night of stories, recognition, and connection — where lives are celebrated, progress is honored, and our shared mission is brought to life.
💡 All proceeds from the evening directly support Kingdom Living’s mission, helping provide safe housing, life-skills development, employment support, and long-term recovery resources for those ready to take their next step forward.

🎄 Supporting Someone in Recovery This Holiday Season 🎄

The holidays are a time of joy — but they can also bring extra stress for those in recovery. If you have a loved one working to stay sober, here’s how you can support them this season:

💛 Be understanding: Celebrate their achievements and recognize the challenges of staying sober.
💛 Offer encouragement: A simple “I’m proud of you” goes a long way.
💛 Respect boundaries: Don’t pressure them to drink or participate in triggering situations.
💛 Include them in healthy activities: Suggest walks, movies, games, or other sober-friendly traditions.
💛 Stay connected: Check in regularly, even virtually, and make sure they know you’re there for them.

This Christmas Eve, let’s remember that presence, patience, and support are some of the greatest gifts we can give. 🎁

🎄 Avoid Holiday Relapse Triggers 🎄

The holidays are a joyful time — but they can also be stressful and full of triggers for anyone in recovery. 💛 Staying aware can help you enjoy the season safely and sober.

Here are some common holiday relapse triggers to watch out for:
❌ Overindulging in alcohol at gatherings
❌ High-stress family interactions or conflict
❌ Feeling isolated or overwhelmed by expectations
❌ Overcommitting to social events or work
❌ Forgetting self-care and skipping recovery meetings

Tips to stay strong:
✅ Attend at least 4 AA/NA meetings a week
✅ Set healthy boundaries with family or friends
✅ Have an exit plan for stressful situations
✅ Prioritize sleep, nutrition, and exercise
✅ Connect with your support network regularly

This holiday season, plan ahead, protect your recovery, and celebrate safely. Every small choice counts toward staying sober and strong. 🙌
