Emotional Sobriety: The Key to Thriving in Recovery with Dr. Robb Dean

Emotional Sobriety is the ability to have a healthy relationship with one's emotions. To be in touch. To be aware. To let yourself feel them and interpret them.
Ever wondered how understanding your emotions can help you in addiction recovery? In this episode of the Addiction Support Podcast, Melissa Sue Tucker sits down with Dr. Robb Dean, a seasoned therapist and addiction recovery expert, to unpack the concept of emotional sobriety. Dr. Dean explains that emotional sobriety is all about having a healthy relationship with your emotions—being aware of them, feeling them, and interpreting them as facts rather than letting them control you.
This approach is vital for anyone on the path to recovery. They discuss practical strategies like self-discovery and meditation to help separate and understand different emotions. The conversation also touches on the importance of compassion, healing from trauma, and the role of spiritual programs in maintaining emotional balance. If you're supporting someone through addiction or are on your own recovery journey, this episode offers invaluable insights and practical advice to help you thrive emotionally.
