ULA - Tips and Tools for Recovery that WORKS!

Unconditional Life Acceptance is a key part of the SMART Recovery toolkit, and a very powerful way to deal with whatever life throws at you. While we may not all have the ability to change our life circumstances immediately, we all have the power to change the negative ways we think about them, learn what we can and cannot reasonably control, and how to work towards acceptance. Your own journey toward life acceptance may be long, difficult and often painful. It takes practice, patience, persistence. It can sometimes seem impossible during the roughest of times. But at SMART Recovery we feel that the journey is both well worth the effort, and attainable by anyone. Always remember that you DO have a choice on how you react to and/or feel about any given situation – however bad it might be. If you think about life challenges in this light, unconditional life acceptance could eventually become a powerful tool to succeed at long term recovery.
