Once the tiger's out of the cage, once the cat's out of the bag, I couldn't get it back together again. I would have to drink a lot and I have to eat a lot, and sometimes I'd have to eat so much that I would be in the bathroom because I was embarrassed by how much I needed to eat.
Ever wondered how faith and spirituality can play a pivotal role in overcoming compulsive eating? In this episode of OA RISE, the spotlight is on just that. The speaker begins by sharing her deeply personal story, detailing how her relationship with food spiraled out of control and how she came to realize that only a miracle could save her. This sets the stage for a heartfelt discussion on the importance of faith and spirituality in the recovery process.
Through the lens of the 12 steps of Overeaters Anonymous, she delves into how building a connection with a Higher Power can be transformative. She emphasizes the need to overcome personal barriers like intolerance and denial, which often hinder spiritual growth. By sharing her own journey of finding God through the 12 steps, she provides practical advice on strengthening one's faith reserves.
The episode also encourages listeners to get involved with OA RISE, whether by volunteering or attending upcoming speaker meetings. It's a powerful reminder that faith and spirituality can be crucial tools in the battle against compulsive eating. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that might just provide the spiritual boost you need.
