Reflecting on the impermanence of everything can help us find gratitude for the good and let go of the losses.
Ever feel like you're constantly riding a wave, sometimes up, sometimes down? In this episode of 'A is for Alcoholic', Jerry takes a deep dive into the concept of 'Ebb & Flow'. He talks about how it's almost second nature for those struggling with alcoholism to hyper-focus on the present moment. While being present is essential, Jerry argues that it's equally important to take a step back and see the bigger picture.
The year 2020 threw numerous challenges our way, both globally and personally. By looking back, we can identify patterns in our lives—our highs and lows—and learn to appreciate the good moments while letting go of the bad ones. Jerry believes that understanding the impermanence of everything can help us find gratitude and peace in our recovery journey. He also touches on societal pressures, particularly around masculinity and sobriety.
Traditional views on what it means to be a man can be restrictive and damaging, but Jerry encourages listeners to redefine masculinity in a way that supports their own recovery. This episode is packed with insights and reflections that are sure to resonate with anyone on the path to sobriety.
