I think part of our disease is that everything is urgent and important, and deciphering what to do first and what the focus should be is an art in itself. So much depends on our own attitudes, and we believe that changed attitudes can aid recovery.
Picture catching up with an old friend and diving deep into life-changing principles. That's what happens in this episode of The Recovery Show, where host Petey reconnects with Karen B. They revisit her story from episode 262, 'Third Time is the Charm', and catch up on what's new. But the real heart of the conversation is about how they both live by Traditions 1 and 2 of Al-Anon in their daily lives.
These traditions aren't just rules; they're a roadmap to unity and personal growth. Karen and Petey discuss how embracing unity can transform your recovery journey. They also touch on the significance of a loving God in Tradition 2, offering a fresh perspective on spirituality. Letting go of outdated tools and embracing new ones is another key theme. Ever felt stuck using old habits that no longer serve you? Karen shares how she navigated this tricky terrain.
Service in recovery is another highlight. Karen explains how being of service has brought joy and purpose to her life, turning challenges into opportunities for growth. The episode also delves into handling relationships with loved ones still struggling with addiction. Karen and Petey offer practical advice on approaching these situations with grace and compassion. This episode is packed with valuable insights for anyone on a recovery journey.
Whether you're new to Al-Anon or a seasoned member, Karen and Petey's conversation provides guidance and support that can make a real difference.
