Deepening Your Recovery: Finding Peace and Presence

Once you find a certain point in recovery, the time comes to go deeper in and deepen the peace that you created in your early recovery, even when, like you said Kevin, sometimes in the early recoveries you have days of peace.
Picture this: you've made it past your first year of sobriety. The initial milestones are behind you, and now you're looking to deepen your recovery. In this episode of 'Sobriety Elevated', hosts Jim Pehkonen and Kevin Thole dive into what it takes to not just maintain but enrich your sober life, no matter how long you've been on this journey.
Whether you're one month in or a decade down the line, this episode offers valuable insights to keep your recovery vibrant and fulfilling. Jim opens up about his personal experience with meditation and how it's been a game-changer for his peace of mind. But meditation isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. They explore various mindfulness practices like yoga and exercise, emphasizing the importance of finding what resonates with you.
The conversation also delves into living in the present moment and embracing self-love and radical acceptance. Jim shares a touching story from a group therapy session with children, highlighting the transformative power of finding peace through expression. Kevin and Jim discuss the concept of 'presence' and its role in reducing anxiety, offering practical tips that you can integrate into your daily life.
If you're looking to enhance your sobriety journey with more peace and self-acceptance, this episode is packed with wisdom and practical advice.
