Wisdom from History: David Hume's Lessons for Recovery

Our collective history shows that founders encouraged us to not fear change, to preserve the principles, but be flexible in the method. Change can break down barriers, no matter how uncomfortable it first feels.
Can the past really guide us through the challenges of addiction recovery? In this episode of Hammock Readings, the hosts dive into the teachings of Scottish philosopher David Hume, offering a fresh perspective on how history can shape our present and future. The discussion kicks off with a quote from Hume, suggesting that learning from history makes us wiser and more virtuous.
This sets the stage for a conversation about the value of shared stories and communal learning in the recovery journey. The hosts reflect on their own experiences, emphasizing the importance of service, stewardship, and the ability to adapt. They also touch on how humor and wisdom play crucial roles in maintaining sobriety. Wrapping up with a call to action, listeners are invited to join the Hammock Readings community for daily doses of inspiration and guidance.
Whether you're navigating your own recovery or supporting someone else, this episode offers valuable insights to help you along the way.
