Recovery is not really an individual matter—well, it is and it isn’t. We alone can do it, but we cannot do it alone.
Picture this: you're on a recovery journey, and while it's deeply personal, it's also something you can't do alone. That's the essence of this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery'. Hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas sit down with Robert Miles, a seasoned recovery treatment and prevention professional, to discuss how vital community support is in the recovery process.
With over 25 years of experience and a current role as a Board member of the Texas Recovers Rally for Recovery, Robert offers a wealth of knowledge on making communities more supportive for those in recovery. Robert dives into what makes a community recovery-friendly rather than hostile. He shares practical tips on how people in recovery can be visible while still respecting the tradition of anonymity.
This episode also touches on the role of legislative advocacy in promoting recovery support and how education can prevent addiction and foster recovery. The conversation goes beyond just the mechanics of community support. It delves into the impact of addiction on communities, the benefits of having a supportive environment, and the importance of spirituality and wellness habits in recovery.
Robert's insights are not just theoretical; they are grounded in years of hands-on experience working with communities and advocating for legislative changes. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in how communities can better support those on this journey, this episode is packed with practical advice and inspirational insights. As Robert aptly puts it, “Recovery is not really an individual matter—well, it is and it isn’t.
We alone can do it, but we cannot do it alone”. Tune in to learn how to foster a supportive community that makes recovery possible.
