Your loved one does not have to change for you as a family member to have peace of mind, to be able to sleep at night, to get free from the fear that has been running our lives.
Family relationships often bear the brunt of addiction's chaos. Trust and security vanish, leaving a trail of heartache. But what if there was a way to restore hope and peace? In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas welcome Ellie Hyatt, the director of Family and Spiritual Recovery at The Retreat in Wayzata, Minnesota, to discuss just that.
Ellie dives into how families can embark on their own journey of spiritual recovery, even if their loved one is still struggling with addiction. She shares that the key to family recovery lies in understanding that your peace of mind doesn’t hinge on someone else's actions. It's about reclaiming your power and finding serenity amidst the storm. Ellie explains that building trust starts with families learning to trust themselves again.
Long-term recovery isn't just about the individual battling addiction; it's a two-way street requiring change on both sides. She also highlights the significance of accepting powerlessness and the profound difference between intellectual understanding and spiritual transformation. Community support and volunteerism emerge as crucial elements in this healing journey. At The Retreat, families find a safe space to openly share their stories and connect with others on similar paths.
Tune in to this enlightening episode to discover how spiritual recovery can be a pivotal turning point for families grappling with addiction.
