Meet Teresa, a woman whose faith shifted from being part of the problem to being part of the solution in recovery. She shares her journey to radical acceptance and finding faith as a verb.
Have you ever thought of faith as something you do, rather than something you have? In this episode of 'Atheists in Recovery', Dr. Adina Silvestri chats with Teresa, who shares her unique journey from an irreligious background to a profound spiritual awakening in her 20s. Teresa’s story is all about embracing faith as an active part of her recovery process, rather than a passive belief system.
She dives into the concept of radical acceptance, explaining how it has played a crucial role in transforming her life and recovery. Teresa discusses the importance of community over traditional meetings and how the 12 steps provided a framework for her faith shift. Her insights into the limitations of organized religion and the need for personal growth resonate deeply, especially for those feeling disconnected from conventional recovery paths.
Teresa also touches on the challenges posed by social media in today’s recovery landscape, offering a balanced view of its benefits and pitfalls. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how faith, when viewed as a verb, can inspire hope and change in recovery. If you're curious about alternative approaches to recovery that blend spirituality with action, Teresa’s story is sure to offer valuable perspectives.
