  • Transformation involves integrating mind, body, and desires.
  • A holistic approach prevents compartmentalisation of beliefs and actions.

  • Living with integrity means aligning all parts of oneself.
"Transformation is about integrating all parts of ourselves—mind, body, and desire."
What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this thought-provoking episode of Relational Recovery, hosts Wes Thompson and Austin Hill delve into the concept of transformation. They explore how change is not just about external desires like wealth or possessions but also about character and behaviour. The discussion focuses on those struggling with exaggerated behaviours, often labelled as addictions, and the universal longing for something better.
Wes and Austin highlight the importance of integrating mind and body in the journey of transformation. Drawing from Christian spirituality, they discuss how a holistic approach can prevent the compartmentalisation that leads to moral failures. The episode challenges listeners to consider how their beliefs align with their actions and emphasises living with integrity, where all parts of oneself fit together harmoniously.
With over 20 years of experience in addiction recovery, the hosts share insights into how true change requires recognising the interconnectedness of thoughts, desires, and actions. The episode is an eye-opener for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of addiction and the profound impact of spiritual and psychological integration on recovery. Are you ready to explore how transformation can lead to a life of integrity and fulfilment?
