Joi Andreoli on Rituals, Triggers, and Thriving in Sobriety

The Recovery Cycle is just this visual representation where you can see the recovery, you can see where you are in recovery and how, if you've gotten off track, to insert yourself back into the process of recovery, regardless of what program.
What does it take to truly thrive in sobriety? In this episode of the '1000 Days Sober Podcast', Lee Davy sits down with Joi Andreoli, a licensed marriage and family therapist with decades of sobriety under her belt. Joi is also the author of 'The Recovery Cycle: A Practical Guide to Loving Your Sober Life'. Together, they dive into the nuts and bolts of building a fulfilling, alcohol-free life.
Joi's book serves as a roadmap for those seeking to embrace sobriety with open arms. She shares her personal journey and the powerful concept of ritualisation. Imagine having daily practices that ground you, provide comfort, and keep you focused on your goals. Joi believes these rituals are crucial and can include anything from spiritual practices to exercise routines. But it's not just about rituals. Joi and Lee also tackle the tough topic of triggers and cravings.
How do you navigate those moments when the urge to drink feels overwhelming? Joi offers practical tips and insights, drawing from her extensive experience both as a therapist and someone who has walked the path of recovery herself. One fascinating part of their conversation is the discussion on the mind as a relational and embodied process. Joi explains how understanding this can help in managing addiction.
By learning how our minds regulate energy and information, we can better understand our cravings and take actions that support our sobriety. Joi also touches on the link between addiction and other habits like smoking or sugar consumption. Addressing these secondary habits can strengthen your overall recovery journey. This episode is packed with valuable advice and heartfelt stories that anyone on the path to sobriety will find beneficial.
Whether you're just starting out or looking for ways to deepen your commitment to an alcohol-free life, Joi's insights offer a beacon of hope and practical guidance.
