Whatever god or higher power you believe in or don't believe in. I hope you give yourself a shot to have a remarkable life, just like me.
Ever wondered how faith, or even the lack of it, can play a role in addiction recovery? In this episode of 'Sobriety Rocks', host Kirk Waterman takes you on his deeply personal journey of grappling with the concept of a higher power. Growing up, Kirk's belief in God was as solid as his belief in Santa Claus. But as life threw curveballs, his faith wavered, and he found solace in godlessness.
That is, until one day, the weight of his struggles pushed him to seek help from the universe. And just like that, he found himself in the God-filled rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous. Initially skeptical, Kirk referred to these believers as a 'group of dorks'. But he soon realized that something greater than himself was needed to pull him out of his dark place.
Through prayer, meditation, and embracing patience, tolerance, and love, Kirk discovered a higher power that helped him reclaim his life. He even shares a simple yet effective meditation technique that brings peace and kindness into his heart. This episode is not just about finding faith; it's about finding strength and hope in the most unexpected places.
If you're curious about how spirituality can aid in recovery or if you're seeking a fresh perspective on sobriety, Kirk's story offers a compelling listen.
