Finding Peace: The Role of Comfort Zones and Self-Forgiveness in Recovery
There is a lot to be discovered in the quiet moments in the comfort zone. I feel like when I first got sober, I had to figure out my comfort zone. So, in a weird way, that cycle like the most boring thing you can be in life is a drug addict, because it's the same thing over and over, and it's that fear.
Ever feel like you're constantly being told to push beyond your limits? In this episode of 'Recovery Rocks', co-hosts Lisa Smith and Tawny Lara flip the script on the popular 'get outside your comfort zone' mantra. They dive deep into the importance of comfort zones, especially for those navigating the rocky road of addiction recovery. Lisa and Tawny argue that comfort zones aren’t just safe spaces—they’re essential for healing and stability.
They open up about their own journeys, sharing how they've set boundaries, found their comfort zones, and learned to forgive themselves for past mistakes. The episode also touches on the necessity of self-forgiveness and giving yourself grace. As Lisa puts it, 'there is a lot to be discovered in the quiet moments in the comfort zone'. This conversation isn't about staying stagnant; it's about recognizing the value of feeling safe and connected, particularly in online sober communities.
