What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this episode of Take 12 Recovery Radio, Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty Man, takes listeners on an intriguing journey through the themes of mental health and recovery by reviewing the movie 'The Road Within.' With humour and candour, Monty shares his reflections on how laughter plays a crucial role in the recovery process.
The film's portrayal of characters dealing with Tourette's syndrome, OCD, and anorexia is both enlightening and entertaining, sparking a conversation about the complexities of mental health. But it's not all about movies. Monty engages his audience with a quiz about Alcoholics Anonymous, shedding light on the pivotal Step Three in the Twelve Step programme. This step, which involves turning one's will and life over to a higher power, is discussed with personal stories of faith and accountability.
Monty's anecdotes provide a refreshing perspective on recovery, emphasising that it's okay to find joy and humour in the journey. With guests like Dion from Raw Recovery and Roger McDermott from Came to Believe Recovery, the episode is filled with lively discussions and light-hearted banter. It's a reminder that while recovery is serious business, it doesn't have to be devoid of fun.
As Monty says, "We have fun in recovery." So, if you're curious about how humour and faith intersect in the path to sobriety, this episode is a must-listen. Will you find laughter in your recovery journey?
