Parts 1, 2 and 3 of our four part webinar series on Motivational Incentives are now available.  Part 1 introduces the evidence based practice of motivational incentives also known as contingency management. Part 2 is about "The Tic-Tac-Toe Board", a simple tool for breaking larger goals into smaller, achievable steps.  Part 3 introduces another tool called "The Fishbowl Method".  Click here to view the recorded webinars, download the supplemental handouts and register for the remaining one.
Fans of our Self Care:  A Guide for Addiction Professionals know that it highly recommends improving one's diet as an important way to maintain health and spirits. Yet we are the first to acknowledge how challenging this can be. So we were pleased to find a tool that can make choosing and preparing fresh fruits and vegetables easier. Seasonal and Simple is both a website and a free mobile app for iphone, ipad or android device.
