Staying Connected: Bill Vineyard on the Power Behind Sobriety

If you're an alcoholic or drug addict, because that is the socket he gave us to plug into to get that source of power to stay sober and clean, that's it.
Ever wondered what keeps people sober long after they've quit drinking? Bill Vineyard, a seasoned alcohol and drug counselor with over 37 years of experience, has some compelling answers in this episode of 'The Recovery Effect Podcast'. Titled 'Source of Power', this episode digs into the heart of what sustains sobriety and spirituality. Bill doesn't just talk about getting sober; he emphasizes the crucial work of staying sober by staying connected to a higher power.
And for him, that source is God. But it's not just about faith—it's about action and community too. Bill shares a touching story about a friend who fell away from 'The Program' and the devastating consequences that followed. This episode isn't just theoretical; it's packed with real-life experiences and practical advice. He discusses the importance of sponsorship, carrying the message to others, and the sheer powerlessness one can feel in the grip of addiction.
If you're looking for a blend of spiritual guidance and practical steps to maintain your sobriety, this episode is a must-listen. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the spiritual side of addiction recovery, Bill's insights offer a comforting yet challenging perspective. His gentle tone, combined with occasional light humor, makes this episode both engaging and deeply moving.
Tune in to learn how staying connected to your source of power can make all the difference in your journey to a sober, fulfilling life.
