Recovery Advent Challenge 2020


We are very excited to announce an upcoming event for the month of December... That’s right! We are bringing back the Recovery Advent Challenge (2020 edition)!

We will be doing the challenge via Instagram and our Facebook page/groups.

  • IG: @vanislevoicesforeds

  • Facebook Page: Vancouver Island Voices for Eating Disorders

  • Our Recovery Advent Challenge 2020 private Facebook group can be found on our Facebook page. Anyone is welcome to request and join.

We have created a calendar with daily challenges people can take on whether they live in our community of Vancouver Island or want to participate from a distance. We will be posting the challenges daily and encourage anyone who wants to, to participate!

The challenges are designed to be flexible in order to respect that people are in different places in their journey and recovery/healing looks different on everyone.

The hope is for people to challenge themselves, but participate in a way that feels safe for them, create a sense of community and support over the holidays by sharing in each others challenges and achievements, and embrace the (sometimes challenging) holiday season. There’s no pressure to participate every day, it’s up to each person to decide what feels good for them.

Challenges have also been adjusted to ensure COVID-19 precautions are followed (though stay tuned to local government sources as these restrictions/precautions may shift over the coming months.)

We hope you’ll join us for the month of December.

Daily challenge posts will start on December1st. We will be using #recoveryadventchallenge2020 on Instagram.
