For me, in my progress in Al-Anon, what I've really come to learn about slips or slip ups are that they're a part of the whole picture, that we are human, we're designed to slip up, and that this program is designed to support that, to support us slipping up.
Ever wondered what an 'Al-Anon slip' really means? In this episode of 'The Recovery Show', the hosts break down this often confusing concept, offering clarity and practical advice. They dive into the different types of slips you might encounter, like controlling behaviors, enabling actions, and emotional setbacks. If you've ever questioned whether you're experiencing a slip, this episode will help you identify the signs and understand how it differs from a relapse in AA.
The hosts emphasize that slips are a natural part of the recovery journey and highlight the importance of self-compassion in overcoming them. You'll hear about useful tools like taking personal inventory, making amends, and setting boundaries. They also discuss how meetings, literature, and even technology can support your recovery process. One key takeaway is the significance of recognizing obsessive thinking and learning how to manage it.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone in Al-Anon looking to navigate their recovery with greater understanding and kindness towards themselves.
