Ego Check: Overcoming Negative Thoughts and Finding Balance in Recovery

I don't like to categorize them into positive or negative, but it's just kind of like your body is sending an alert out to, like you, that something is off and something that needs to be addressed and to be made aware of.
What happens when we stop resisting our thoughts and feelings? In this episode of 'The Recovery Pod', Steven and his friends tackle the complex dance between resistance and acceptance. They explore how letting thoughts and emotions flow naturally can lead to personal growth. The hosts dive into the cognitive triangle of thought, feeling, and action, offering practical advice on breaking free from negative thinking cycles. Ever feel stuck in a loop of negativity?
This episode might just have the key to unlock that door. Mindfulness plays a big role in their discussion, especially when it comes to our aversion to pain and attachment to pleasure. How many of us started our addictions seeking pleasure and dodging pain? Balancing these scales can be a game-changer for finding contentment. Steven and friends share insightful tactics to help listeners navigate this balance. And then there's the F word: failure.
Is it really the big bad wolf we should fear? Or can we make peace with it? The hosts argue that embracing failure is crucial for self-improvement. Ana throws in an amazing metaphor that you won't want to miss, adding a touch of humor and relatability to the conversation. If you're looking for a podcast that blends practical advice with heartfelt discussions, this episode of 'The Recovery Pod' is a must-listen.
It’s perfect for anyone striving for personal growth while battling addiction or mental health challenges. Tune in and discover how small shifts in mindset can lead to big changes in your recovery journey.
