We are pleased to announce the release of our newest Tips & Tools for Recovery that Works! video Exchange Vocabulary.
The Exchange Vocabulary method is a great way for you to identify words you think or use in your everyday life that may be “demands” instead of “preferences”.
But some words can do great harm: Particularly absolute words like must, can’t, always, and never. The use of absolutes can often fuel negative emotions when you’re dealing with tough situations.
