Harriet Hunter's Path to Recovery: Finding Miracles in Everyday Life

All I can tell you is that were it not for the hand of aa, for my journaling, for my conscious contact with god, I don't know if I would have made it home, because had I started to drink or drug, that would have been it.
Imagine facing life's toughest challenges without the crutch of drugs or alcohol. That's exactly what Harriet Hunter did, and she shares her incredible journey on this episode of Recovery Survey. Harriet, the author of 'Miracles of Recovery: Daily Meditations of Hope, Courage and Faith', sits down with Brett Morris to discuss how she navigated the rough waters of addiction recovery using tools like journaling and a strong connection to a higher power.
But it’s not just about the tools—Harriet's story is a testament to the power of trusting the process and finding miracles in everyday life. Harriet opens up about her struggles with emotional insanity and how she learned to overcome them without resorting to substance use. She emphasizes the importance of practicing recovery principles in all aspects of life, not just during meetings. Her approach includes 'detachment with love', a strategy for maintaining healthy relationships while staying true to oneself.
One of the standout moments in the conversation is when Harriet talks about the role of journaling in her recovery. For her, writing isn't just an activity; it's a lifeline that keeps her grounded and connected to her higher power. She shares how this practice has been instrumental in helping her navigate difficult situations without falling back into old habits. Harriet also touches on the unexpected benefits of custom online shirt retailers for people in recovery.
These shirts serve as badges of honor, allowing individuals to wear their recovery journey proudly and openly. It’s a small but meaningful way to foster community and self-respect. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience and faith, offering invaluable insights for anyone on the path to recovery. Harriet Hunter’s story is not just inspiring; it's a reminder that miracles are possible when you trust the process and stay committed to your journey.
