Labor Day Triggers #sobertribe #addictionrecovery
In this brief monologue, Dallas Bragg offers practical guidance for individuals in addiction recovery who want to avoid relapse over the Labor Day weekend. He suggests doing exactly one new activity that the person has never tried before, emphasizing that setting a strict "no‑use" expectation can create unnecessary pressure. Bragg advises viewers to sit down in a distraction‑free, meditative setting—whether at a desk or in the woods—and write down the specific question, "What is one thing I can do differently this weekend that I haven't done before to keep me sober?" He stresses the importance of answering this question on paper with a clear mind, avoiding TV, music, or phone scrolling while doing so. The overall message is that a simple, novel, self‑generated safeguard, thoughtfully recorded, can help maintain sobriety during holiday triggers.
