Books, Letters, and Recovery: Nate and David's Honest Reflections

So you've decided to give up that old behavior that's been killing you and all you care for and surrender to a power greater than yourself. Now it's time to walk through that door and into a whole.
Ever wondered what books can truly make a difference in your recovery journey? Nate Larkin and David Hampton dive into their latest literary finds in this episode of the Positive Sobriety Podcast. They don't just stop at book recommendations; they also read heartfelt letters from listeners, adding a personal touch that makes this episode feel like a warm conversation among friends. Nate shares his thoughts on 'Atomic Habits' by James Clear, 'The Practicing Mind' by Thomas M.
Sterner, and 'The Art of Possibility' by Rosamund Stone Zander and Benjamin Zander. Meanwhile, David brings 'The Way of Gratitude' by Galen Guengerich and 'Recovery—The Sacred Art' by Rami Shapiro to the table. These books offer fresh perspectives on habit formation, gratitude, and the spiritual aspects of recovery. But it’s not all about the books. Nate and David also discuss how grief shapes our culture and why supporting women in addiction recovery is crucial.
They explore the influence of 12-step programs on the church and consider alternative recovery methods that might resonate more with some people. Their reflections are authentic, engaging, and full of wisdom gained from their own experiences with sobriety. Whether you're looking for new reading material or just need some encouragement on your path to recovery, this episode offers something valuable.
