How making a Bucket List or Wish List can invigorate your recovery from chronic illness
A video on how important it can be to think about compiling a wish list or bucket list in recovery. It is a useful tool for thinking about what exciting and interesting things you may wish to do or experience when you are able to.
Hope is a very useful and powerful feeling and in creating a wish list you can feed that hope with achievable targets and a sense of belief that you will be able to fulfil your wishes. This isn't supposed to be setting down in black and white your life plan or what you want to do for the next 50 years, but a compilation of your short term desires. Whether these wishes are as small as making a cup of tea or as grand as travelling to a far off country for a holiday or experiencing a feeling like sand squished beneath your feet or rain on your face they inspire and energise the people involved.
"To a resolute mind, wishing to do is the first step toward doing. But if we do not wish to do a thing it becomes impossible."
Robert Southey (1774 - 1843)

Videos on recovery from chronic conditions - YouTube, the final frontier.
After much consideration and deliberation I have taken a leap into the unknown by filming and uploading a video on YouTube. This film is to introduce Life In Recovery and explain what to expect.
(There will be an explanatory video following this one as to why I felt it necessary to take this step.)
I would massively appreciate it if you could subscribe, like and do all that helpful stuff so that Life In Recovery can get moving!
I really hope you enjoy watching the videos and that they
can help you or someone you know. I would love to hear from you if you have
