The Core of Recovery: Embracing a New Way of Life

Recovery is not merely the absence of a substance. But abstinence, abstinence of the time, is the way most of us should live, not only because it interrupts our physical sobriety, but it gets in the way of our spiritual or emotional and our mental connection, which, combined with the physical sobriety, is the four areas or the alignment we need to live.
Ever thought about what truly lies at the heart of addiction? In Episode #242 of 'The Recovery Guy Podcast', Robert Pardon takes you on a journey to uncover the deep-seated selfishness and self-centeredness that often keep people trapped in the cycle of substance abuse. With over three decades of sobriety, Robert offers a raw and honest look into his own struggles and triumphs, providing a beacon of hope for anyone seeking a different way to live.
Robert doesn't just scratch the surface. He dives into the nitty-gritty of recovery, emphasizing that it's more than just abstaining from substances—it's about rebuilding your life from the ground up. He shares insights from his personal experiences and introduces listeners to Cedar House, a group that has been making waves in the recovery community since the early '90s. In this episode, you'll hear about the importance of aligning your spiritual, emotional, and mental well-being.
Robert passionately discusses the first tradition of Alcoholics Anonymous, highlighting the power of unity and connection. He also touches on the significance of seeking a higher power and doing a thorough self-inventory to become a better person. But it doesn't stop there. Robert underscores the rewarding impact of helping others on their recovery journey. His message is clear: recovery is a lifelong process that transforms not just your habits but your entire way of living.
So, if you're ready to embrace a new path and discover what true recovery feels like, this episode is a must-listen.
