Hi all, this blog post contains a few of my thoughts about recovery – illustrated visually.

I also just started a new Flickr group called Recovery Images. To see it click on: Link to Recovery Images Flickr Group.

The Flickr Group is meant to be a place where folks can post images that illustrate the concepts of recovery or wellness. You are most welcome to post images or just take a peek.  You’ll need a Flickr account to post.

When you have a look, click on the image to see the description of how the photo illustrates recovery or wellness.

I’d also love to hear your insights about wellness and recovery. Please post your thoughts in the “comments” section of this blog.

"Reaching Up" Recovery is about reaching up and continually growing.

"A Journey Forward"  Recovery is not about arriving at a destination and stopping. it is an ongoing journey as we travel along the path of life. Its also about moving forward, not back to the way we were in the past. Everyone is changed by their life experiences. No one can go back to being exactly the same person they were, say, five years ago or even one year ago. Our experiences transform us. We are continually growing like the trees in the image.

"Making Peace" Recovery is about making peace with the shadows in our life.

"Rising"  Recovery is about rising upward, again and again.
