Imagine setting sail on the vast ocean of life, navigating the choppy waters of addiction recovery. In 'The Lifeboat', an episode from the 'Promise of Recovery' podcast, host Lauren Lansrud takes you on a metaphorical journey that resonates deeply with anyone who has faced the stormy seas of addiction.
Lauren likens her own recovery to being out on a boat, emphasizing how crucial it is to stick to the traditions and principles of her 12-step program to stay safe and steady on course. One key tradition she highlights is the singleness of purpose at recovery meetings—keeping the focus solely on passing the message of recovery to those still struggling.
Straying from this mission, she warns, can lead to chaos and distraction, steering you away from your primary goal of sobriety. This episode is a treasure trove of practical advice and heartfelt encouragement. Lauren's insights are not just theoretical; they come from her lived experience and the collective wisdom of countless others in the A.A., N.A., O.A., and CoDA communities.
She underscores the importance of attending meetings and utilizing the tools provided by these programs to maintain abstinence and continue progressing on the path to recovery. As you listen, you'll find yourself buoyed by Lauren's authenticity and passion for helping others navigate their own recovery journeys. Whether you're new to the 12-step world or a seasoned veteran, 'The Lifeboat' offers a refreshing perspective on staying focused and committed.
Tune in for an episode that's as supportive as it is enlightening, and let it guide you towards calmer waters.
