Reframing Sobriety: Embracing Recovery with John Clark

Recovery, real, lasting and sustainable recovery. It's as much about abandoning what we think we know as it is about learning a new way of thinking or a new way of living.
Imagine thinking that sobriety is just about cutting out alcohol or drugs. In this episode of 'Forest Fires', John Clark flips that idea on its head. He argues that this common belief can actually trip us up on the road to long-term recovery. Instead, John explains how recovery is a journey of gaining far more than you ever lose. It's not just about abstaining from substances; it's about transforming your entire mindset and lifestyle.
Sobriety and recovery aren't interchangeable terms, and understanding this difference is crucial. John dives deep into the root causes of addiction and the toxic thought patterns that often accompany it. He shares how adopting new ways of thinking and living can lead to a fulfilling and lasting recovery. If you're ready to see sobriety in a new light and embrace the positive changes that come with recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
