Feelings are great indicators; they're just horrible dictators.
In this engaging episode of SOBER: The Podcast, Bradley Saxon takes you on a journey through the emotional landscape of fear. As a recovered addict of 17 years, Saxon shares his insights on how fear can be a powerful force in addiction and recovery. He introduces the idea of fear as an acronym - 'Forget Everything and Run' versus 'Face Everything and Rise'.
Saxon dives into the process of examining fear through a four-step inventory, encouraging you to face your fears head-on and transform them into opportunities for growth. Saxon discusses how fear often acts as a filter, distorting our perception of reality and leading to emotional decisions that can cause pain and trouble. He emphasises the importance of living with feelings rather than being led by them, pointing out that feelings are indicators, not dictators.
This episode offers practical advice on overcoming emotional strongholds, with Saxon urging you to embrace a God-driven programme to find freedom from the bondage of self. With anecdotes from the Bible, Saxon illustrates how fear affects everyone, drawing parallels between his own experiences and those of biblical characters like Jonah. He highlights the consequences of emotional decision-making and the importance of aligning oneself with God to control emotional natures.
The episode is filled with wisdom and encouragement, making it a must-listen for anyone struggling with addiction or seeking a deeper understanding of their emotions. Saxon's candid storytelling and practical advice provide a compelling reason to tune in and explore the transformative power of facing fear. So, are you ready to face everything and rise?
