Christmas can be a joyous time, but for those on a journey to sobriety, it might also bring a fair share of challenges. In this mini episode, Danni Carr shares three powerful journal prompts to help you stay on track during the festive season. With humour and warmth, Danni talks about setting intentions, staying committed, and practising gratitude to keep those pesky triggers at bay.
She encourages listeners to grab their journals and jot down their intentions for December, whether it's staying off alcohol or committing to daily exercise. Writing down what you're 100% committed to can make all the difference. Danni also highlights the importance of recognising old patterns and having a plan to counter them. Her suggestion? Stick your reminders where you can see them – on the fridge or in the car – so they're always there when you need them.
Finally, she emphasises the power of gratitude and how reflecting on why you're grateful for change can ground you and keep those feelings of missing out at bay. With her relatable anecdotes and practical advice, Danni inspires listeners to embrace the holiday season with a sense of control and joy. Ready to feel proud and peaceful this Christmas?
