Finding Calm in Chaos: Taoist Lessons for Alcohol Recovery
I think that's why very few people find this path: because it takes surrender and we don't want to surrender.
Ever feel like you're constantly battling life's storms? In this episode of the 'Tao of Our Understanding Alcohol Recovery Podcast', the hosts dive into Chapter 22 of the Tao Te Ching.

This episode explores how adopting a flexible mindset can help you find peace and ease, no matter the circumstances. By embracing the concept of a Higher Power and letting go of resistance, you can navigate your recovery journey more smoothly. The hosts also discuss how surrendering in relationships can lead to deeper connections and a more charitable heart. It's not just about quitting alcohol; it's about transforming your entire approach to life.
If you're looking for practical advice blended with spiritual insights, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on finding calm amidst chaos.
