Breaking Free from the Past: Embracing Sobriety with Statement Nine
“The past is gone forever. You can choose to eliminate the negative thinking that kept you mired in self-doubt when you were drinking. You can decide that you will no longer re-victimize yourself by dwelling on negative memories.”
Have you ever felt haunted by your past mistakes, especially as you embark on your sobriety journey? In this episode of the Getting to Recovery podcast, M. Broughton Boone tackles Statement Nine of the Women for Sobriety (WFS) New Life Program: 'The past is gone forever. No longer will I be victimized by the past.
I am a new woman.' Boone delves into the emotional weight many women carry as they step into sobriety, and how the past can often feel like a heavy chain dragging them back into old habits.
