The Power of Step One: Embracing Surrender in Addiction Recovery

Step one means that we do not have to use, and this is a great freedom.
Why is admitting powerlessness the hardest yet most vital step in addiction recovery? In this episode of 'Addiction Recovery - Living The Program', Roy Nichols and Lorraine dive into the essence of Step One from the Narcotics Anonymous sixth edition. They read from the text and share personal reflections on the importance of acknowledging one's inability to control addiction and the chaos it brings.
This step isn't just about admitting defeat; it's about finding the courage to surrender and accept life as it is. By doing so, individuals open the door to genuine recovery and healing. Through heartfelt discussions, Roy and Lorraine emphasize that surrendering doesn't mean giving up but rather embracing a new way of living. They explore how support from the Narcotics Anonymous community can provide hope, meaning, and a path out of the darkness of addiction.
Tune in to discover how accepting powerlessness can be the first step towards reclaiming your life.
