Finding Connection and Confidence in Recovery with Dr. Patrick Carnes

Bonding is the key to openness. When we have people we can trust and a group where we belong, we can begin to open. We open our minds to new ideas and new ways of seeing the world. We open our hearts to empathy, compassion and love.
Imagine the relief of having someone who truly knows you and cares about you, even in your darkest moments. That's what Dr. Patrick Carnes delves into in this episode of Recovery Road. Drawing from his book 'A Gentle Path Through the Twelve Principles: Living the Values Behind the Steps', Dr. Carnes sheds light on the crucial role of vulnerability and trust in addiction recovery.
Many battling addiction struggle with unmet needs for bonding and intimacy, often leading to feelings of shame and unworthiness. But there's hope. By finding a supportive community, individuals can start to build meaningful connections and overcome these negative emotions. Dr. Carnes emphasizes the power of being open and honest, sharing personal stories, and having heartfelt conversations to foster trust and belonging. This episode is a beacon for anyone grappling with trust issues or feeling isolated in their recovery journey.
Tune in to discover how building these connections can help you find your voice and lead a more confident, fulfilling life in sobriety.
