We change from the inside out. When we try to satisfy life from the outside inward, this story is the result.
What if the key to recovery lies not in external changes, but in a profound internal shift? This episode of the 'Tao of Our Understanding Alcohol Recovery Podcast' delves into the timeless teachings of Chuang Tzu, particularly the story 'Keng Sang Chu', to illustrate this very idea. The hosts explore how true recovery begins from within, using the metaphor of the sage who dwells in the fruit, not the husk, to emphasize the importance of inner transformation over outward appearances.
Sensei Elliston joins the conversation, offering his unique perspective on how the 37th verse of the Tao Te Ching provides a roadmap for embracing our true nature and finding a higher power in the simplicity of nature. By surrendering and letting go, we can tap into a deeper sense of peace and fulfillment that external achievements can never provide. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone on the path to sobriety, blending philosophical wisdom with practical advice.
Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, you'll find valuable lessons on how to cultivate inner strength and serenity through Taoist philosophy.
