Imagine growing up in a strict religious environment and then finding peace in a completely different spiritual path. That's the story of Jordan Harris, a primary counselor at Fellowship House, who shares his incredible journey from addiction to recovery in this episode. Raised in a conservative Protestant family, Jordan struggled with self-hatred, fear, and discontentment, which were compounded by religious trauma and the misuse of pharmaceutical pain medications.
His search for solace led him to Buddhism and Eastern spirituality, where he discovered the principles of Recovery Dharma. This approach, rooted in Buddhist teachings, offered him a unique path to healing. Jordan's story highlights how spirituality can play a crucial role in overcoming addiction. He talks about practices like non-attachment, mindfulness, and meditation, which helped him find a deeper connection to himself and the world around him.
