Mirror, Mirror: Embracing Self-Reflection in Recovery

Remember that recovery is a journey... You have grown. You are not the man or woman you used to be.
Ever taken a hard look at yourself in the mirror and wondered who you really see? In this episode of 'A2D - From Addict to Disciple', David Hain dives into the power of self-reflection and self-acceptance on the road to recovery. He kicks things off by asking listeners to gaze into their own reflections and confront the emotions staring back at them.
For many in recovery, the mirror can be a daunting place, filled with memories of shame, guilt, and fear. But David flips the script, encouraging everyone to see their true selves—strong, resilient, and capable of incredible growth. Drawing inspiration from Michael Jackson's iconic song 'Man in the Mirror', as well as wisdom from Yoko Ono, Pablo Picasso, and others, David weaves a tapestry of encouragement and self-love.
He stresses that recovery is a journey, peppered with highs and lows, and it's crucial to view past mistakes as stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks. David's challenge? Jot down five positive things about yourself and stick them on your mirror. This simple act serves as a daily reminder of your progress and potential. Tune in to 'A2D - From Addict to Disciple' for a heartfelt discussion that will leave you inspired to embrace your reflection and celebrate your journey.
