Three types of thinking

Ever wondered how your thinking changes as you move from addiction to recovery? In this episode of 'Forest Fires', John Clark dives into the evolution of thought processes during this transformative journey. He breaks down the two types of thinking that often accompany the early stages of recovery: emotionally charged thinking and rational, excuse-making thinking. These are the mental hurdles many face when first stepping onto the path of sobriety.

But the real magic happens when these patterns shift towards what John calls 'wise thinking'. This type of thinking is a blend of knowledge, acceptance, and action, and it plays a crucial role in sustaining long-term recovery. John also touches on the importance of making amends and the benefits of self-introspection. His personal experiences add a layer of authenticity and hope, making this episode a must-listen for anyone on their own recovery journey or supporting someone who is.
