Serge Prengel's Proactive Twelve Steps: A Mindful Approach to Recovery

The steps really don't talk about how to stop drinking... they also talk about the actual physical things that we do.
Picture yourself on a journey to recovery that embraces mindfulness and secular language. That's what Serge Prengel brings to the table in this episode of Beyond Belief Sobriety. Serge, a therapist, life coach, and co-founder of the Integrative Focusing Therapy Online Training Program, sits down with John S. to discuss the sixth edition of his book, 'The Proactive Twelve Steps: A Mindful Program for Lasting Change'.
This conversation is a breath of fresh air for those who find traditional recovery language a bit too rigid or religious. Serge and John S. dive into the nitty-gritty of how the twelve steps can be reimagined through a secular lens. They chat about how using mindful practices can lead to more profound and lasting changes. Serge explains how trauma often plays a hidden role in addiction and why understanding this can be crucial for recovery.
The episode also touches on the limitations of language when it comes to describing personal experiences, making it clear that everyone's journey is unique. Throughout their discussion, Serge's compassionate and insightful approach shines through, offering listeners practical tools and new perspectives. If you're looking for a recovery path that resonates with your need for mindfulness and a non-religious framework, this episode is definitely worth your time.
