Fill in the blanks for the poem below. Then create your recovery window! It doesn't have to be here and a scrapbook you can use any media you like.
I looked out my window and saw recovery. It was ____________.
I immediately noticed recovery, then _________________.
What I realized was that recovery was __________________.
I believe recovery is __________________.
A Recovery Window is similar to a vision board. Just like with vision boards, in a Recovery Window, images are used to represent the things that you want in your life. The difference is that the Recovery Window is designed to be like an actual window that you can hang up on your wall and look at every day. It can be as simple as a drawing of a window, or created with a simple picture frame, or a more elaborate construction A Recovery Window is to be hung up and gazed upon many times a day. Windows, by their very definition, offer us a glimpse beyond where we are at the moment. We look through a window and see somewhere that we are not, and yet we know it's right on the other side of the pane. Similarly, a Recovery Window gives you the opportunity to SEE your Recovery that is right on the other side of your pain. Every time you look at your Recovery Window, you are getting a clearer and clearer picture of what it is you want, and why you want it. You are bringing it closer and closer to reality, simply by looking at the view.
