Rather than judge it, make choices about how you use it...don't become righteous, keep this eye to that relationship, keep connected during trouble.
Why does it feel so satisfying to judge others? In this eye-opening episode of 'Emotional Sobriety: The Next Step in Recovery', psychotherapists and best-selling authors Allen Berger and Thom Rutledge tackle this question head-on with their guest, Joe C. They dive into the idea of 'maddiction'—a term that captures our addiction to righteous indignation—and how it intersects with emotional sobriety.
The trio discusses the importance of recognizing and owning our judgments, and how to channel that energy into more constructive avenues. Through engaging dialogue and personal anecdotes, Berger and Rutledge emphasize that emotional sobriety is about maintaining relationships that are appropriate to the situation, staying connected even during tough times, and making progress rather than seeking perfection. They offer practical tips like keeping a notebook to track judgments and becoming more aware of how we spend our emotional energy.
This episode is packed with valuable insights for anyone on a recovery journey or those supporting loved ones through it. It’s a raw, thought-provoking conversation that provides actionable tools for cultivating emotional resilience and standing up for oneself. Tune in to discover how you can put your energy to better use and take meaningful steps toward emotional sobriety.
