Letting Go with Love: Teresa and Nancy's Guide to Recovery

Detaching with love is a process like learning to ride a bike: you practice and practice, you fall down, get up, try different speeds and test the brakes, and One Day you realize you've got the hang of it.
How do you find the strength to let go of a loved one struggling with addiction? In Episode 23 of 'A Caminhada', hosts Teresa Neves and Nancy Neves Burns tackle this heart-wrenching question with their signature blend of empathy and wisdom. The episode focuses on the concept of 'detaching with love', a practice that involves learning to let go while still caring deeply for someone caught in the grip of addiction.
Teresa and Nancy share their personal stories, including those raw moments when they hit rock bottom, and how they learned to navigate the tumultuous waters of loving someone with an addiction. They also highlight the role of Al-Anon, a support group for friends and family of alcoholics, in providing much-needed guidance and community. The episode isn't just about the struggle; it's about finding freedom and peace through detachment.
The hosts emphasize that recovery requires courage—courage to change what can be changed and to seek strength from higher powers. They wrap up the discussion with a powerful psalm verse: 'Seek the Lord and His strength', leaving listeners with a sense of hope and encouragement. If you're looking for practical advice mixed with heartfelt stories, this episode is a must-listen.
