Three Check-In Reminders

In the early days of recovery and during those periods when the eating disorder was loud, I found that having some gentle check-in reminders to use with myself helped me stay present, especially when I felt frustrated or believed I "should" be farther along. I'd like to share those statements with you, in case they could be helpful for you too. 💛

I am sending you lots of love and support and these three gentle reminders:

• Acknowledge your progress.

• Acknowledge how far you have come.

• Acknowledge what recovery is adding to your life.

What check-in questions or reflection prompts (verbal, creative, etc) do you use that help you get perspective and motivation?
