The real purpose of the program, in my opinion, is that it helps us grow up, it helps us finally start to mature, and really that's the heart of what we're going to be talking to people about in emotional sobriety.
Feeling overwhelmed by life's ups and downs, especially while on your recovery journey? This episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio' might just be what you need. Monty Dale Meyer, fondly known as the Monty'man, teams up with Dr. Allen Berger, the author of 'Twelve Stupid Things That Mess Up Recovery', to dig into a profound letter by Bill Wilson, the co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Bill Wilson referred to emotional sobriety as the 'next frontier', and this discussion is all about understanding what that means for your recovery. Dr. Berger sheds light on how emotional sobriety is about more than just abstaining from substances—it's about learning to manage your emotions and reactions in a healthier way. They touch on the concept of the 'false self', which tricks us into believing our worth is tied to external factors.
This episode emphasizes the importance of character development and maturing emotionally to truly benefit from the recovery process. The conversation also explores 'spiritual bypass', a common pitfall where people use spirituality to dodge life's challenges instead of facing them head-on. By the end of this episode, you'll gain valuable insights into how to live a more balanced, authentic life. So, if you're ready to take your recovery to the next level, tune in and start your journey towards emotional sobriety.
