These are things that will speak to someone who needs to hear it, someone who's been fighting with sobriety and who maybe doesn't want to go the traditional-step route and might need to hear that these options are available to them.
Perfection is often seen as the ultimate goal, but what if embracing imperfection could be the key to a happier, sober life? In this episode of 'Recovery Happy Hour', host Tricia Lewis chats with Zander, who shares his unique journey to sobriety. Zander's story is not about following a traditional path; instead, it's about finding what works for him, from serenity skills to the ancient practice of qigong.
This episode dives deep into the idea that recovery isn't one-size-fits-all and that sometimes, the unconventional methods are the most effective. Zander opens up about the challenges of overcoming guilt, shame, and blame, and how these emotions can be roadblocks on the path to sobriety. He also discusses the crucial role of relationships, differentiating between those that are toxic and those that are supportive.
One of the standout topics is Zander's experience with acupuncture and qigong, highlighting how these practices help him manage stress and anxiety. Tricia and Zander emphasize the importance of finding personal strategies that resonate with you, whether that's a 12-step program or something entirely different.
As Zander puts it, 'These are things that will speak to someone who needs to hear it, someone who's been fighting with sobriety and who maybe doesn't want to go the traditional-step route and might need to hear that these options are available to them'. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that offers a fresh perspective on life beyond alcohol.
