Happiness is what you get outward, like from things happening around you, or to you, or with you. But joy is really, I think, all about you.
Joy in recovery—what does it really mean? In this episode of 'At The CCC', hosts Bonnie Violet and Lou Lou dive deep into this very question. Broadcasting from the heart of San Francisco at the Castro Country Club, they offer a refreshing perspective on what it means to find joy while navigating the ups and downs of recovery.
Unlike happiness, which they describe as fleeting and external, joy is portrayed as a profound, internal experience that can be cultivated even amidst struggles. The hosts share their personal journeys, highlighting how shifting perspectives and embracing purpose can make all the difference. They discuss the significant role of identity in the recovery process, emphasizing how owning who you are can be a powerful source of joy.
Financial struggles also come under the spotlight, with candid conversations about how overcoming these challenges can lead to unexpected moments of joy. Sharing testimonies is another key theme, as both hosts and guests reveal how opening up about their experiences has helped them find deeper joy. Mindfulness practices are also explored, showcasing how staying present can enrich one's recovery journey.
The episode wraps up by contrasting the fleeting nature of joy outside of recovery with the lasting joy found within it, offering listeners a hopeful and inspiring outlook. If you're curious about how to find joy in your own recovery journey or just looking for some heartfelt stories and practical advice, this episode is a must-listen.
