Alternative Paths to Recovery: Beyond 12 Steps with Jim and Andi

More choices for people, I think, is what it's all about.
Tired of the same old 12-step programs? Jim and Andi are here to shake things up. In this episode of 'Recovery Talks', they dive into a range of alternative recovery programs that go beyond the traditional methods. They kick off with LifeRing, a secular program offering online meetings for those who prefer a non-religious approach.
Next, they explore Alternatives to Suicide, a peer-led initiative that provides a safe space for people to talk about their struggles without the fear of being diagnosed or judged. Ever heard of the Hearing Voices Network? It's another fascinating program they discuss, aimed at supporting individuals who experience auditory hallucinations. Then there's White Bison, which integrates Native American cultural practices into the recovery journey.
Recovery International focuses on cognitive-behavioral techniques to help manage negative thoughts and self-talk, while Whole Health Action Management (WHAM) takes a holistic approach to health and wellness. Jim and Andi share their personal experiences with traditional recovery programs and discuss how these alternatives can offer more tailored support. They stress the importance of having multiple options to cater to different needs and beliefs. Whether you're looking for something secular, spiritual, or culturally specific, this episode has something for everyone.
Tune in to hear more about these unique programs and find the one that resonates with you.
