Relapse is part of recovery until its NOT! What lessons have you learned from relapses? Do you know? Could you tell me?
Ever felt like you're taking two steps forward and one step back in your recovery journey? Jason Inserra knows that feeling all too well, and in this episode of the Powerless to Powerful Recovery Podcast, he tackles the complex topic of relapse head-on. Joined by guests who share their own stories, Jason explores how relapses, while challenging, can offer invaluable lessons if approached with the right mindset.
He likens recovery to an engine that needs more than just abstinence to keep running smoothly. According to Jason, elements like spirituality, prayer, meditation, selflessness, honesty, forgiveness, love, and tolerance are the fuel that keeps this engine going. The discussion gets real about the destructive power of addiction and emphasizes the importance of recognizing triggers and developing positive rituals to counteract them.
Jason opens up about his own experiences with relapse, revealing how these setbacks taught him the necessity of having non-negotiables in his recovery plan. He stresses that relapse isn't a failure but a part of the journey until it isn't anymore. By learning from these experiences, one can become more aware and responsible. This episode serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is not a straight path but a winding road filled with lessons.
Whether you're in the thick of your recovery or supporting someone who is, you'll find this conversation both enlightening and encouraging.
