Recovery Planning Worksheets
Recovery is a journey that benefits from structure, reflection, and intentional support. This section provides practical tools to help you set goals, track progress, and stay connected to the daily actions that strengthen your recovery.
Each worksheet is designed to bring clarity and consistency to your process - helping you identify what’s working, recognize challenges early, and plan meaningful steps forward with confidence and care.
Self-Reflection Prompts
Self-reflection is a powerful way to deepen awareness and growth in recovery. This section offers guided questions and journaling prompts designed to help you explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences with curiosity and compassion.
Each prompt encourages you to pause, notice, and understand what’s happening beneath the surface, helping you strengthen your sense of self, clarify your needs, and connect more meaningfully with your values and goals.
Processing Emotions Support
Understanding and labelling emotions is a vital part of the healing process. This section offers tools designed to help you recognize what you feel, explore what’s beneath the surface, and build a more accepting attitude toward your emotions.
Each resource in this collection supports a different stage of emotional growth, from identifying and naming your feelings to reflecting on their deeper meaning and learning how to respond with mindfulness and care.
Meal and Nutrition Guidance
Nourishing your body is an essential part of recovery. This section provides structured tools and gentle guidance to help you maintain a balanced relationship with food, and support your overall well-being.
Each resource is designed to make meal planning and nourishment feel less overwhelming and more intentional—helping you develop confidence, stability, and trust in your ability to care for yourself through food.
Mindfulness Activies
Mindfulness helps you slow down, reconnect with the present moment, and respond to your thoughts and feelings with compassion rather than judgment. This section offers grounding practices that support awareness, balance, and emotional regulation throughout your recovery journey.
Each activity is designed to help you notice what’s happening inside and around you—whether through breathing, journaling, reflection, or movement—so you can cultivate focus, and connection in your daily life.
