Balancing Self-Effort and Surrender: Chuang Tzu’s Lessons for Recovery

When I turned things around, however, and put god at the head of the list, when I ceased struggling to pull myself up and stepped out of the way so his light could shine down to me, then, for the first time in Years, things of consequence began to happen in my life.
Ever wondered why some people manage to get sober while others struggle? This episode of the 'Tao of Our Understanding Alcohol Recovery Podcast' dives into this complex question through the lens of Taoist philosophy. The hosts unpack the teachings of Chuang Tzu and his disciple Keng, exploring the delicate balance between self-effort and surrender in the journey to recovery. They discuss whether it's about working harder or knowing when to let go and trust a higher power.
You'll find thoughtful discussions on where your efforts are truly needed and where they might be holding you back. It's an eye-opening conversation that challenges the conventional wisdom of 'just try harder'. Tune in to discover how letting go can sometimes be the most powerful step towards sobriety.
