Recovery for families means taking the focus off of the person that's got the addiction and placing it on themselves, each family member learning how to place their focus on themselves, and when they do that, family members learn that they do have power, that they've got spiritual power to change their own lives, to love that person with the active addiction without enabling that person.
When addiction touches a family, it can feel like the ground has shifted beneath your feet. In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas are joined by Billye J., a seasoned veteran with over 40 years of experience in family recovery. Billye opens up about the profound impact spirituality can have on families navigating the turbulent waters of addiction. Billye's journey is a testament to the transformative power of spiritual study and prayer.
She shares how families can regain their sense of connection and stability, even when a loved one is struggling with addiction. One key takeaway? The importance of shifting focus from the person with addiction to oneself. By embracing their own spiritual power, family members can find healing and joy, regardless of their loved one's recovery status. The conversation dives into practical ways to achieve this shift, offering listeners a blend of heartfelt stories and actionable advice.
From overcoming chaos and anxiety to finding new levels of happiness, Billye's insights are both comforting and empowering. She discusses the delicate balance of loving someone with addiction without enabling them, highlighting the strength that comes from setting healthy boundaries. This episode isn't just for those directly affected by addiction; it's a beacon of hope for anyone seeking to understand the role of spirituality in recovery.
Whether you're in the thick of it or supporting someone from the sidelines, you'll find solace and inspiration in Billye's words. Tune in to discover how spiritual principles can pave the way for family healing and personal growth.
