Embracing Self-Compassion in Sobriety with Heidi Jones
“It's about the big picture, and actually so many of us have been trained that when we feel something we don't want to feel that we numb it and that we go and have a drink or have a piece of cake or whatever, and when we stop doing those numbing behaviours, all this stuff, just like on your run, the run is like a beautiful metaphor actually for a sober journey, because on your run everything came up.”
