Once Sober, Safe, and/or Stable, it is time to commit to Love in order to move the recovery process forward. This means that we first open ourselves to the caring, support, encouragement, and positive regard coming from professional caregivers, family, and friends. These are the people who really care about our well-being and recovery. Then we start with a program of self-care. Then we reach out to help others. This Love thing is huge. You don’t want to miss out.
