À propos de cet audio
In this episode, Jennifer Smith explores the role of structure in early recovery and why predictable routines can feel stabilizing when life has been chaotic for a long time.
Rather than focusing on motivation or breakthrough moments, the episode looks at how simple daily structure — set wake-up times, regular meals, scheduled groups, and planned breaks — helps reduce decision fatigue and calm an overstimulated nervous system.
Drawing from everyday observations inside a treatment setting, Jennifer reflects on how shared routines shape the emotional tone of the day, create containment for difficult moments, and quietly reduce feelings of isolation. The episode also acknowledges that structure isn’t always comfortable at first, and why resistance to it is common.
This conversation isn’t about fixing anything quickly. It’s about how stability often begins with repetition, predictability, and a steady rhythm — long before flexibility or insight come into play.
