When we stop being in denial, when we're open to looking at what's going on and seeing things, maybe that we're not super wild about, then we net so much.
Ever found yourself stuck in a cycle of denial when it comes to a loved one's alcoholism? Episode 253 of The Recovery Show tackles this exact issue head-on. Denial isn't just a river in Egypt; it's a defense mechanism that many of us use to shield ourselves from the painful reality of addiction. But what happens when we finally break through that wall of denial and step into acceptance?
The hosts dive deep into these questions, sharing personal stories and experiences that shed light on this complex emotional process. You'll hear from guests who recount their own battles with denial and how they found peace and serenity through the Al-Anon 12-step program. The episode doesn't just stop at identifying the problem; it offers practical advice on how to shift your mindset and embrace acceptance.
With discussions on the importance of sponsorship, co-located meetings with AA, and the transformative power of changed attitudes, this episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone grappling with denial. Tune in for an honest, heartfelt conversation that could be the first step towards a more serene life.
