Finding Balance: Taoist Wisdom for Alcohol Recovery

If I don't want to show up because I'm not going to get a pretty picture. I think that visual picture of the bow is its balance.
What if the key to overcoming addiction lay in ancient wisdom? In this episode of 'Tao of Our Understanding Alcohol Recovery Podcast', the hosts dive into Chapter 77 of the Tao Te Ching. They discuss how Lao Tzu's teachings on balance and humility can be a powerful guide for those on the path to sobriety. The episode uses the metaphor of a bow, which is only effective when balanced, to illustrate how we can approach life and recovery.
By lowering our expectations and embracing humility, we can become more useful and present in our daily lives. The hosts also explore the role of the ego in creating imbalance and how generosity can help us find equilibrium. This episode is a thoughtful exploration of how ancient Taoist principles can offer fresh perspectives on modern recovery challenges.
