Get ready to challenge everything you thought you knew about addiction with this episode of 'The Freedom Model For Addictions'. Hosts Michelle Dunbar and Mark Shearren dive into the concept of persistence and how it plays a crucial role in overcoming addiction. They argue that addiction is not a disease and that traditional rehab and 12-step programs might actually hinder recovery. Instead, they present a fresh perspective on breaking free from addiction without the endless cycle of meetings and treatments.
Mark and Michelle share their own experiences and discuss how persistence, when properly applied, can lead to genuine change. They liken the process to chiselling away at a rock to reveal a beautiful cannonball inside – persistence helps break down the myths and misconceptions surrounding addiction. Mark draws parallels between persistence in addiction recovery and his experiences in hunting, illustrating how sticking with the process, even when it seems fruitless, can eventually lead to success.
They also touch on the importance of questioning long-held beliefs and the myths perpetuated by society about addiction. Michelle emphasises that real change requires active participation and a willingness to challenge one's own perceptions. The episode offers practical advice on how to start this process, encouraging listeners to take small, manageable steps rather than trying to tackle everything at once.
If you're tired of the traditional recovery methods and are looking for a new approach, this episode offers a refreshing take on what it means to be persistent in the face of addiction. It's not about white-knuckling through; it's about understanding and actively participating in your own journey to freedom. Tune in to discover how persistence can help you break free from addiction and live a life of genuine freedom. Could this be the fresh perspective you've been searching for?
