A Heart of Stone
from Rising From Shame · host Mind Body Spirit.fm
Recovery is heavy on the heart, both for ourselves and the family. Over time, the weight of self-pity and shame, regrets and resentments, fears and judgments, hardens the heart, separating us from solution, fellowship, support, and love. It happens to us all, in varying degrees and for different reasons. We might even think it is ok, as long as we don't relapse or harm others. But it is not ok. True recovery is about transforming our heart into a home of genuine love and joy, not only physical sobriety and mental stability. It is about creating serenity within ourselves so we have the ability to create peace with loved ones. In this episode, Nadia shares about a recent experience with her sons, illuminating the transformational, healing power of this process as a parent in recovery. You too can transform a heart of stone into a heart of solid recovery and blessings for both yourself and loved ones. "Our capacity to make peace with another person, and with the world, depends very much on our capacity to make peace within ourselves."
