| View in browser Welcome to your April Newsletter! Empowering you with information for your emotional and physical well-being. April is recognized as Stress Awareness Month and Alcohol Awareness Month, two observances that hold particular significance for those in healthcare and in recovery. The work you do is deeply meaningful, but it also carries unique pressures. This month offers a chance to pause, reflect, and recommit to the practices that sustain both your professional purpose and personal well-being.   The Weight You Carry Healthcare providers are often called to show up with strength, compassion, and clarity—sometimes at the expense of our own needs. Chronic stress can build quietly, showing up as emotional exhaustion, disrupted sleep, difficulty focusing, or a sense of detachment. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms talk to your therapist or Agreement Monitor. For those in recovery, unmanaged stress can also be a trigger. Recognizing early signs and responding with intention is not just self-care, it’s essential care.   Recovery as a Daily Practice Recovery is not a single milestone, it’s a series of daily decisions that support stability, clarity, and health. During Alcohol Awareness Month, we are reminded that choosing recovery, especially in high-stress environments, is both courageous and ongoing.   Protecting your recovery might include: Prioritizing meetings, therapy, or peer support Setting clear boundaries around workload when possible Taking intentional pauses during shifts to reset Staying connected with your recovery community Caring for the Caregiver You spend your days caring for others. This month let’s also extend that same compassion inward. Supporting your own health including mental, emotional, and physical!   Lastly, If you know a colleague who may be struggling, a simple check-in can go a long way.   We appreciate you and the road you have traveled, and Uprise vows to continue to foster a culture where your well-being, recovery, and support are not just encouraged, but normalized.   You Are Not Alone Even in a field built on teamwork, recovery can sometimes feel isolating, especially when stigma or fear of judgment is present. But there is strength in shared experience. Reaching out to a trusted colleague, sponsor, or support group can make a meaningful difference.  If you’re struggling, please remember asking for help is a reflection of insight and professionalism, not weakness.   We encourage you check out this wonderful outlet and wellness resource, Healthy Nurse, Healthy Nation a free wellness program designed for nurses! A Recovery Resource and Support Tool! Flying Sober - Learn to Soar in Recovery is a virtual support group that teaches that recovery is more than letting go of dependency. It's about rediscovering who you truly are and creating a life filled with purpose, growth, and freedom.   Built to support individuals from the ground up, Flying Sober provides a welcoming space for healing through self-exploration, encouragement, and connection.   Check out their newsletter for April!  Shedding Light on Alcohol     Free Continuing Education Classes Title: The "Art" of Integration: Creative Approaches to Mind–Body Repair and Recovery April 17, 2026 \| 1:00-2:00pm ET Description: Clients who struggle with chronic mental health symptoms often experience a disconnect between mind and body.
