Embracing Autumn's Spiritual Lessons: Marya Hornbacher on Recovery and Renewal

A spiritual life is one lived in that awareness and growth. This is the world that I live in and this is the world that I love.
As the leaves turn and the air cools, autumn brings a sense of change and reflection. In this episode of 'Recovery Road', Marya Hornbacher, acclaimed author of 'Waiting: A Nonbeliever's Higher Power', shares her thoughts on how this season can inspire spiritual growth and recovery. Hornbacher paints a vivid picture of her own journey to sobriety, describing how entering recovery felt like stepping into a new world where everything was both clear and unfamiliar.
She emphasizes the importance of being present and finding beauty in the everyday moments that make up our lives. Through her reflections, Hornbacher encourages listeners to stay grounded in the present and to appreciate the complexity and beauty of the world around them. She highlights how sharing our stories can foster a sense of belonging and community, crucial elements in the recovery process.
The episode serves as a gentle reminder that recovery is not just about abstaining from substances but about embracing a life filled with spiritual principles and continuous growth. Tune in to hear Marya Hornbacher's heartfelt reflections on how autumn's transformations mirror our own journeys in recovery, offering hope and inspiration for anyone on the path to a better life.
