Harnessing Self-Awareness: George DuWors on Long-Term Sobriety and Relapse Prevention

Acceptance of the power of addiction—to substances or to behaviors—is where freedom begins. From that point, our sacred task is self-awareness, discovering embedded emotions and stances that link us to addiction.
What if the key to lasting sobriety lies in truly understanding yourself? In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas chat with George DuWors, a seasoned psychosomatic therapist and author, about the transformative power of self-awareness in the 12-step recovery journey. George, known for his practical and experiential approach to relapse prevention, dives into the critical first step: accepting the power of addiction. He explains that this acceptance is where freedom begins.
From there, it's all about uncovering the emotions and behaviors that keep us tethered to addiction. With a compassionate touch, George shares how we can harness our spiritual power to forge new, healthier connections to life. The conversation also highlights practical tools like the serenity prayer, affirmations, and writing exercises that can aid in this process.
Emphasizing the importance of self-compassion and maintaining a conscious connection with a higher power, this episode offers a wealth of insights for anyone on the path to long-term sobriety. Join Dan, Michelle, and George for an engaging discussion that blends spiritual wisdom with actionable advice, making it a must-listen for those seeking deeper understanding and lasting recovery.
