Anybody can stop drinking and they're going to put you somewhere where your drug of choice is not there, but unless you do the healing and set up a strong process to keep that sobriety alive and enlivened, you are going to literally relapse.
What if recovery wasn't just about staying sober but also about healing and growing? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Sobriety Elevated', hosts Kevin Thole and Jim Pehkonen introduce a fresh model for treatment that goes beyond mere abstinence. They break down their approach into three interconnected circles: sobriety, recovery, and healing. Sobriety, they explain, is the foundation—it's about staying clear of substances, whether it's alcohol, drugs, or even sugar and caffeine. But that's just the beginning.
The second circle, recovery, emphasizes the importance of helping others as a crucial part of your own journey. Kevin and Jim discuss how giving back can enrich your life and strengthen your resolve. Finally, they delve into the third circle: healing. Here, they stress the need for community support and the importance of addressing past traumas to avoid relapse. Traditional recovery centers often overlook this vital aspect, but Kevin and Jim argue that true healing is essential for long-term sobriety.
This episode offers a holistic perspective on recovery that’s both insightful and practical. Whether you're new to sobriety or have been on this path for years, you'll find valuable takeaways to help you on your journey.
