The hero's journey is not just a myth; it is the path we take in addiction recovery. It requires a departure from our old ways, crossing the threshold into a field of adventure, and undergoing a series of tests and tasks to transform ourselves. Only then can we return to our lives and communities changed and victorious.
Picture this: two suburban dads, Mike and Nat, who are not just battling addiction but also juggling the everyday chaos of family life. In this episode of 'Recovery in the Middle Ages', they dive into the concept of the hero's journey and how it mirrors the path to addiction recovery. Drawing from Joseph Campbell's renowned monomyth, they explain how embarking on recovery is like stepping into an epic adventure—one that demands courage, resilience, and transformation.
But it's not all theory; Mike and Nat share practical tools and personal stories to help you on your own quest for sobriety. They also chat about their experiences at the first annual RMA family retreat, where they connected with fellow recovery warriors and explored alternative recovery methods. From the role of exercise and healthy living to the sometimes awkward but essential storytelling in recovery, this episode is packed with insights and humor.
They even tackle the controversial topic of marijuana in addiction recovery, offering a balanced perspective. So, if you're ready to embark on your own hero's journey, join Mike and Nat for an episode that's both enlightening and entertaining.
