Unpacking the Serenity Prayer: A Fresh Take on Recovery

Recovering from anything is not a passive process, whether it's pain or having to live with an addict. Seek knowledge before just laying back and saying to yourself: well, there's nothing I can do about that.
Ever found yourself reciting the Serenity Prayer but wondered what it truly means? In this episode of 'Busting Addiction and Its Myths', Bruno J. dives into the heart of this famous prayer and its relevance to addiction recovery. The prayer, often quoted as 'God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference', holds a deeper significance than you might think. Bruno J.
sheds light on why he prefers an older version that starts with courage and ends with insight. He emphasizes that recovery isn't about passively accepting your fate; it's about actively seeking understanding and making conscious efforts to care for yourself. The episode explores how acknowledging what can't be changed is crucial, but so is striving for wisdom and insight. Bruno J.
also touches on the role of a Higher Power in gaining this wisdom, reminding listeners that while divine help is important, personal effort is equally essential. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a fresh perspective on using the Serenity Prayer as a powerful tool for growth and healing.
