Managing Cravings With Willingness

from Recovery Daily Podcast

One of the questions I'm asked most often is, "When did the cravings stop?" I don't believe my cravings were magically lifted, and I don't think willpower keeps me sober. Instead, my cravings slowly lost their power as they were replaced by willingness willingness to do the next right thing: go to another meeting, pray, ask for help, etc. Move a muscle, change a thought! In this episode, I share how small daily actions changed my relationship with alcohol, why cravings are not commands, and how focusing on the next right thing eventually gave me a freedom I never thought was possible. If you're struggling with cravings today, I hope this episode reminds you that you don't have to fight them forever you just have to be willing to take the next step right now.
