If I have a soda, it's not every day, it's not several times a day, it's just every now and then, so that I am learning to say no to my flesh.
Imagine trying to walk two different paths at once. That’s what double mindedness feels like, and it can make recovery a rocky journey. In this episode of 'Rock of Recovery', Angie Matos tackles this very challenge. She dives into the concept of double mindedness and how it can destabilize your efforts to stay sober.
Angie shares practical tips on how to say 'no' to yourself, even in small ways like skipping that extra soda, to build the muscle for bigger decisions. She also highlights the power of fasting as a tool to control impulsive behaviors. But it’s not just about self-denial. Angie emphasizes the importance of finding trustworthy guides and mentors who can help you stay focused on your recovery goals.
She encourages listeners to identify their good counselors and trusted teachers to unravel confusion and make responsible choices. By building a trustworthy character, not only do you gain others' trust, but you also learn to depend on yourself. Angie’s approach is all about being intentional with your actions and focusing on your destination rather than getting caught up in life's distractions.
This episode is packed with actionable advice and heartfelt encouragement, making it a must-listen for anyone on the road to recovery.
