Its ok to slow down and celebrate the small and large successes.

Pat yourself on the back, you did it! 

Celebrate your accomplishments.

Take time for yourself to recover from the stress you’ve been under.

Don’t jump into anything new too soon, your body and mind need time to get back to one hundred percent. 

It doesn’t need to be overcoming a catastrophic injury, saving a life, or winning a Special Olympics event. All challenges are stressful, even the small ones. All successes, no matter the size, help you tackle the next challenge.

Recovery after a disaster can be challenging, take this quiz and learn more about recovery.

Reflect on your journey. Take the time to write down what went wrong and what went right.

We have as much to learn from our failures as our accomplishments. 

Add a note about an accomplishment in the Take Notes. Then stop and smile knowing you have overcome challenges before.
