We react sanely and normally, and we'll find that this has happened automatically.
Ever felt like your reactions to everyday situations were out of control? Joe McDonald has got you covered. In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe dives into the teachings of the AA founders from their book, Alcoholics Anonymous. He explains how people in recovery can start reacting to life's challenges in a more balanced and sane manner. Imagine being able to handle stress without the urge to drink - that's what Joe is talking about.
He shares that achieving this sanity involves two key conditions: not being tempted by alcohol and instinctively avoiding it like you would a hot flame. It's about changing those knee-jerk reactions that once drove you towards unhealthy choices. As you move forward in your recovery, you'll notice that things which once triggered you no longer have the same power. Your belief system evolves based on your new experiences.
Joe encourages listeners to take pride in their progress and keep pushing for a life of balance and sanity. Tune in to discover how these principles can transform your recovery journey.
