"Most of our problems come from trying to escape our problems."
Get ready to be moved by real-life accounts of generational trauma and its impact on addiction recovery. This episode of 'Alive and Free' dives into the concept of inherited guilt and how it can weigh heavily on individuals seeking freedom from addiction. Bob Gardner, the host, takes listeners through a fascinating narrative about a man burdened by the guilt of an aunt's death, an aunt he never met, and how this revelation came to light during therapy.
You'll find yourself nodding along as Bob questions the validity of such diagnoses and the implications of traditional therapy practices. With a sprinkle of humour and some hard-hitting truths, Bob challenges the notion that our struggles are tied to events we never lived through. He emphasises the importance of living in the present moment and recognising that our problems often stem from our current lifestyle choices.
If you're curious about how our minds can deceive us or how societal norms can influence our perceptions, this episode is a must-listen. Bob's candid storytelling encourages reflection on whether therapy offers genuine healing or just temporary relief. So, what drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? And could it be that we're looking for relief rather than true happiness? Tune in to find out!
