The food, you know, it tracks me, it's a barometer for where I'm at, and it really is.
The holiday season can be a minefield for anyone struggling with compulsive eating, but OA RISE is here to help. In this episode, Susie and Stacey share their heartfelt stories and practical tips on maintaining abstinence during one of the most challenging times of the year. They kick things off with a reading of OA's primary purpose: to carry its message to those who still suffer.
From there, they dive into their personal journeys, shedding light on how the program's spiritual principles have been their guiding stars. Self-care takes center stage as they discuss setting boundaries and recognizing relapse triggers. The power of shared experiences in recovery is a recurring theme, reminding listeners that they are not alone in their struggles. OA meetings have been a cornerstone for both speakers, providing the support needed to stay abstinent even when holiday temptations are at their peak.
The episode wraps up with a gentle reminder that the opinions shared are personal and do not represent OA as a whole. It's a message of hope and strength for anyone battling compulsive overeating, emphasizing the importance of community and mutual support. Tune in to gain valuable insights and find the encouragement you need to navigate the holidays without compromising your recovery.
