Connecting with Higher Values: Rev. Laurie Durgan's Approach to Spiritual Recovery

Finding a connection to higher values is essential to recovery. Whether we call those values God, Spirit, Nature, Beauty, Order, or any other name doesn’t matter.
Finding a connection to higher values can be a game-changer in the recovery journey. Whether you call these values God, Spirit, Nature, or Beauty, what truly matters is opening yourself up to a life-giving connection that transcends fear and chaos. In this enlightening episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas welcome Rev.
Laurie Durgan, a spiritual director at Caron Renaissance Treatment Center and an associate minister at Unity of Delray Beach, who brings her unique perspective on supporting those entering recovery. Laurie, who is also in long-term recovery herself, shares how she uses creativity, gentleness, and clarity to help others find their spiritual footing. She emphasizes the importance of 'feeding your spiritual wolf' and provides practical tips for making a connection with your higher power.
One of the key points Laurie discusses is how addressing shame and guilt can play a crucial role in overcoming addiction. By fostering open dialogue about addiction and recovery, she believes we can break down barriers and enhance spiritual growth. If you're looking for ways to deepen your spiritual practice and find a higher power that resonates with you, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
