         Seeking balance
        and avoiding excess tension 
      
        Dual Recovery is about much more than remaining abstinent and taking
        ones medications. It's about changing our attitudes and learning new
        ways to live. This does not happen overnight. We don't need to demand
        perfection or punish ourselves for mistakes along the way. It helps to
        be patient and gentle with ourselves. 
        
        We can not rush recovery. Insights and serenity come in their own due
        time. The Steps make sense when we work through them carefully and
        methodically. Easy does it, reminds us to be gentle with
        ourselves and  not burden ourselves with more than we can handle.
        We try to approach life in a relaxed manner while taking responsibility
        for living in the solution. Things have a way of unfolding when we are
        willing and patient.
