  • S7E8 Conscious Communication for Better Mental Health
    Jun 18 2025

    S7E8

    Mental fitness is just as important as physical fitness. The conditions of our mind manifest into conditions of our body.

    On this episode, I share some tips on how "conscious" communication can nurture empathy, self-compassion, and deeper connection.

    To support you on this journey, I’ve gathered some of my favourite inspirational tools that can help with stress relief, confidence, habit change, and overall well-being.

    These tools have been invaluable to me and I offer them to you as a gift. Explore them. See what resonates with you. And, please share them. 🔗 https://redroofrecovery.com/recovery-resources

    We are all on our own unique path, but you are never alone. Keep seeking, keep learning, and keep showing up for yourself❣

    May the force be with you and remember... YOU are the force! ❤️ Tanya

  • S7E7 Catch It, Check It, Change It for Better Mental Health
    May 26 2025

    S7E7

    On this episode, Tanya talk about another of her favourite "snappy slogans." The "Catch It, Check It, Change It" tool can help you:

    Catch unhelpful thoughts, check the unhelpful thoughts using tools from CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), and then change the unhelpful thoughts to more helpful thoughts.

    A pioneer in CBT, Dr. David Burns (feelinggood.com) created a list of the 10 most common cognitive distortions (unhelpful thoughts). If you'd like a copy, email Tanya at redroofrecovery@gmail.com and she'll also send you a "Control" meme, for a visual reminder to stay focused on what's within your control.

  • S7E2: What to Do When You're NOT a Good Fit.
    Feb 2 2025

    S7E2:

    In this episode of the Red Roof Recovery show, Tanya revisits the pandemic - when addiction and suicide rates more than doubled.

    During COVID, Tanya became an online facilitator for the Toronto group of SMART (Self Management And Recovery Training). After 2 years of volunteering with the group, she was told that "Moving forward, we don't feel you're a good fit."

    Tanya has been told countless times that she's not a good fit. It was part of what kept her saddled with addictions most of her life. Hearing it again - after being free from addictions for a long time - didn't throw her into the vortex of despair again. This time, she took affirmative action to "never let the fuckers pull you down!"

    So, even though Tanya makes reference to smartrecoverytoronto, she now recommends smartrecovery.org https://smartrecovery.org to access the SMART meetings that are available globally - which will be a good fit for everyone!
