The blessing that we have in recovery in addiction when it comes to addiction is that our medication, our treatment, to bring this under control to where we are not controlled by it, is one abstinence from all mood-altering substances- and the rest is spiritual growth, dealing with issues, getting counseling, dealing with the things that have been destroying you from the inside out- traumas, mistaken beliefs, toxic shame, not understanding the power of thoughts and how to manage emotions.
Ever wondered what drives someone to turn their life around and then help others do the same? Meet Ali, a clinician at Volunteers of America, whose story is both inspiring and enlightening. In this episode of the Recovery Podcast, Ali opens up about her path to recovery and her mission to guide others towards physical, mental, and spiritual wellness.
Ali's journey isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about understanding the deep-seated issues like toxic shame and codependency that often accompany it. She delves into the importance of intensive outpatient treatment (IOP) and how it played a pivotal role in her own recovery. Ali also touches on the critical role of spiritual growth in healing and the necessity of addressing traumas and negative beliefs that can hold us back.
Her story is a beacon of hope, showing that recovery is not only possible but also a gateway to helping others find their own path to wellness. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Ali's experiences offer valuable insights and encouragement. Tune in to hear how one woman's passion for healing has transformed her life and the lives of those around her.
