The importance of community in recovery cannot be understated. Having others around who can understand and relate to all of the trials that someone is going through in recovery can be a motivating and inspirational experience. However, not all communities are the same. It is important to find a recovery community that works for each individual and explore what beneficial recovery communities look like. Finding out how one’s individuality fits into the community identity is important to establish an important relationship between someone and their own community. Having others who understand is just the first aspect, but having a supportive group of people who then also accept and work together towards a larger goal can be the most influential aspect of one’s time in recovery.

The need for each person to find a way to relax in their recovery is just as important as instilling new therapeutic practices. Without finding a way that someone can safely detach themselves from their stressors, the constant, stressful nature of addiction and the recovery process can become overwhelming. Each person will need to find their own way to expel many of the pent-up energy and anxiety that they may be feeling in a safe and productive way. While some people may benefit from yoga, others will instead employ the benefits of other approaches, such as fishing or various other kinds of meditation. Sound baths are another helpful way for someone to engage in this kind of detachment and attain a relaxed state of mind in order to safely express their emotions and continue on their journey through sobriety.
