Finding Spirit within everyday experiences is what creates recovery.
Have you ever wondered how to weave spirituality into your daily life while on the path to recovery? In this engaging episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas chat with Rev. Laurie Durgan, a spiritual director at Caron Renaissance Treatment Center and associate minister at Unity of Delray Beach, Florida.
Laurie, who is also in long-term recovery herself, shares her wisdom on how grounding oneself in gratitude, love, and joy can be a game-changer in the recovery journey. Laurie explains that finding spirit in everyday experiences is not just a lofty idea but a practical approach to sustaining recovery. She talks about the importance of focusing on what we have rather than what we lack, and how this shift in perspective can clear negative thoughts and make room for positivity.
The conversation delves into various ways to connect with Spirit daily, whether through prayer, meditation, or simply appreciating the small joys of life. One of the standout moments in this episode is when Laurie discusses the power of gratitude. She believes that by being thankful for even the simplest things, we can energize ourselves to keep growing and evolving.
This episode is a treasure trove of practical advice for anyone on the 12-step journey or those supporting loved ones through recovery. The hosts and Laurie also touch on the significance of community and retreats in recovery. They highlight how stepping away from the hustle and bustle to focus on spiritual growth can provide a fresh perspective and renewed energy.
If you're looking for ways to integrate spirituality into your recovery process or simply want to hear an uplifting conversation about finding joy in everyday life, this episode is for you. Tune in to discover how embracing spirituality can lead to new levels of happiness and freedom.
