I feel like we're missing something, and I feel like there's something that can be added to this to try to help with that belief.
What if the key to overcoming addiction lies within you? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Sober Militia', J.W. Collier flips the script on the traditional concept of a higher power in sobriety. Instead of looking outward for strength, Collier suggests that we can become our own higher power by connecting with our original selves and distancing ourselves from our addicted personas. This isn't just about rejecting traditional recovery programs; it's about finding a new path to personal growth and fulfillment.
Collier dives into the core beliefs and cognitive distortions that often fuel addiction, arguing that relying on an external higher power might actually reinforce feelings of powerlessness. By redefining what a higher power means, he encourages listeners to challenge these limiting beliefs and take control of their recovery journey. This episode is a call to action for self-awareness and personal empowerment, emphasizing that while community support is vital, each person's path to sobriety is unique.
If you're ready to explore a new perspective on recovery and tap into your inner strength, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
