Home for the holidays or just out of town? If you’re in recovery, that means you’ll have to miss in-person meetings with your recovery “home group” where you usually live.

If this season gets you frazzled, it’s especially important to keep this in mind.
Kasim Sulton, formerly the bassist with Utopia, is frequently on the road touring, so he knows a few things about protecting his recovery while traveling. Check out his real-life recovery tip!
