The Three Stages of Recovery: From Crisis to Spiritual Growth

Recovery beyond sobriety is learning to be an adult, not a terrified, angry child forever acting and reacting to Yesterday in an adult body.
Have you ever wondered what it truly takes to move from addiction to a fulfilling, abundant life? In this episode of Recovery Road, William C Moyers teams up with Hazelden Publishing to break down the three essential stages of recovery, as introduced by the pioneering counselor Earnie Larsen in his book 'Destination Joy: Moving Beyond Fear, Loss, and Trauma in Recovery'. Each stage reflects the depth of damage we've experienced, both from others and ourselves.
The first stage is all about confronting the addiction head-on or managing a crisis. It’s the initial step where the chaos begins to settle. The second stage shifts focus to life management and taking adult responsibility. This is where we gather the tools and support needed to navigate daily life effectively. The third and final stage dives deep into early negative imprinting, guiding us towards spiritual growth.
It’s about recognizing the difference between past and present, allowing us to make free choices today without being shackled by yesterday’s fears and anger. Recovery is a challenging journey, but with the right guidance and support, spiritual growth and a more abundant life are within reach. Tune in to hear more about how Ernie Larsen's insights can illuminate your path to recovery.
