Breaking Down Chapter 2 of This Naked Mind: Sobertown Podcast Insights

I think the biggest part of everything is for me, has been- is community of everything.
Ever wondered why some recovery methods work for some and not for others? In this thought-provoking episode of the Sobertown Podcast, hosts ThisMrs and Drifter dissect Chapter 2 of 'This Naked Mind' by Annie Grace. They kick things off with 'The Blame Game', exploring how we often point fingers at ourselves or alcohol when things go wrong. Then, they delve into the controversial Allergy Theory and Alcoholic Genes, questioning whether our DNA really holds the key to addiction.
Annie Grace's views on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) are also put under the microscope. She explains why AA didn’t fit her recovery approach, providing an alternative perspective that might resonate with those who haven’t found success with traditional methods. But it's not all about what doesn’t work; ThisMrs and Drifter emphasize the importance of building new habits and the power of community in recovery.
As ThisMrs aptly puts it, 'Community has been the cornerstone of my journey.' Whether you're new to sobriety or a seasoned veteran, this episode offers fresh insights and practical advice to help you on your path. Tune in to discover more about the science behind addiction and the many ways to reclaim your life.
