Balancing Powerlessness and Personal Strength in Recovery

I first thing I had to do was understand that whatever I was doing to try to control my life, I had no power, and I had to stop doing a lot of different things besides the drugs and alcohol. And to just say there's one and it is the one presence in the universe gave me something to hang on to, gave me something to test my ideas against.
Ever felt like surrendering control means losing yourself entirely? Revs. Lonnie and Dan get it. In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', they dive deep into the delicate balance between acknowledging powerlessness over addiction and reclaiming personal strength through spirituality. It's a nuanced dance that many in recovery struggle with, but Lonnie and Dan are here to share their wisdom and experiences to help you find your footing.
They discuss how surrendering to a higher power doesn't mean giving up your personal power but rather discovering a new way to harness it. Through heartfelt stories and practical advice, they explore the benefits of service, meditation, and unity in the recovery process. By embracing these practices, you can overcome negative emotions and tap into a source of inspiration and guidance that's greater than yourself.
This episode is perfect for anyone grappling with the concept of powerlessness and looking for ways to feel empowered on their recovery journey. Tune in to hear how spirituality can be a guiding light, helping you find balance and strength in your life.
