During the early stages of recovery from drugs and alcohol addiction there is such a thing as overkill as far as recovery related activities go.  Balancing recovery with other activities is essential in order to avoid burnout.  ]]></description>

Being blessed as I am today, knowing what I know today I do absolutely “Trust the Process”!   The process is allowing things to be just as they are not trying to manipulate them to be what he or she thinks is the right way.  ]]></description>
