Confidence and self- esteem also rise as you start to feel and look better. Good family activities include walks, hiking, swimming and other sports such as canoeing or tennis. Eat healthy foods. A good, healthy diet is a must for anyone, but even more so for a recovering alcoholic. You ll feel better and your healthy eating habits will set the example for your kids.
Hobbies offer new challenges and a sense of accomplishment.
Both are important to a recovering alcoholic. And hobbies that the family can do together bring the family closer. Also, take on new hobbies of your own that you can share with the family. Take up a musical instrument, art, gardening or gourmet cooking. Take an active role in your child s new hobbies.
