Positive Recovery app for iPhone and iPad

The Positive Recovery App will send you daily inspirational quote(s) to help motivate you to live the best life possible in recovery. This App can stand alone as such a tool, yet its more profound when used as the companion for The Positive Recovery Daily Guide, full of daily intentional strategies (that follow these quotes) designed to boost well-being. Each day in the book comes with an inspirational quote(s) and text to help guide you in fulfilling these strategies, called positive interventions, or PIs for short. Benefits of engaging in these enriching activities include improved relationships, strengthened recovery, more balanced emotional health, and much more. Slow and steady wins the race. When you repetitively apply yourself to making positive contributions to your (and others’) well-being, you broaden your skills and build your resources. In turn, these positive strides in wellness are self-reinforcing, enable you to flourish in your recovery and life. Often getting sober is not enough. Leaving the wretched prison of active addiction is awesome and liberating, but even if you work a great program, there is no guarantee you will truly flourish in recovery. The inspirational daily quotes (and the PIs in the book) use new scientific findings and combine those with effective relapse-prevention techniques specifically geared to help you live a life so rewarding that relapse is less likely. The secret to happiness is not a secret and happiness is not “all in your head.” People cannot simply decide to be happy. It’s not that easy. You can increase your overall level of happiness, but it takes intentional practice—repeatedly doing the right things. Positive Recovery is designed to help you do just that: learn effective strategies for managing life’s difficulties, such as anxiety, stress, longing, resentment, and self-doubt. Any happiness-building PI only works when it’s applied—not studied in the abstract. I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather try to flourish and live the best life I can than simply live in order to avoid a relapse. My hope is that you will engage with these PIs and try them yourself. Yours, JP
