Affirmations for Recovery Podcast - Season Eight Day Twenty

Every morning, as the sun begins to peek through the curtains, I find myself in quiet conversation with the Father, seeking guidance on the message I'm meant to share. It's a practice that grounds me, a reminder that I'm a servant to something far greater than myself. Today marks day 20 of our shared journey, a milestone that fills me with gratitude for the sheer tenacity and spirit of those around me. In this heartfelt conversation, we reflect on the power of inspiration and its remarkable ability to lift us above negativity and propel us through our recovery and personal transformation.

The resilience and stories of those in recovery—regardless of what it is they're overcoming—never cease to amaze me. From the simple yet profound affirmations we instill in our children, shaping their young minds with positivity, to celebrating the unwavering support of those who believe in our missions and dreams, this episode is a tapestry of encouragement. I invite you to join us as we delve into the essence of inspiration, sharing what ignites our passion and determination to forge ahead in these tumultuous times. It's a reminder to care for ourselves as we do for others, nurturing our spirits as we continue on this path of healing and growth. Let's keep the inspiration abundant, and the support for each other strong, until we meet again.

Questions this episode answers:
1. How can inspiration aid in the process of recovery and personal growth?
2. What role does spirituality play in maintaining motivation and resilience during transformation?
3. Are there any practical tools or resources, like books or affirmations, recommended for supporting children and adults on their journey to recovery?

00:00 - Erick Allen (Host)
Good morning. So today we're going to slow things a little bit down. I pray, like I do every single morning. Before I do these, I make sure I pray, I talk to the Father and ask Him specifically what does he want me to talk to you about? How do you want to lead me? Because I'm just a servant. Okay, I'm here because of you. I'm here because the Father asked me to be here, to share this message with you. So, day 20, day 20, we've been at this two thirds of the way, and we're two thirds of the way there. So I'll never stop progressing.

I'm inspired by everybody that comes every single day talking to me, making comments, sharing their life journey with us. You inspire me, man, I'm telling you, everybody in recovery, no matter what you're in recovery from, you inspire me, because we make this world go round. Man, shout out to Ocean Tree Creative.

Tell us, share it with us, so I can share with somebody else. Sharing is caring. Yes, Continue to take care of yourselves, guys, I'm telling you. I know with recovery firsthand, sometimes we lose ourselves, we forget. We put so much work in helping others that we forget about ourselves. We put so much work in helping others that we forget about ourselves. Got to make time for yourself. You're no good to us if you don't take care of yourself first. Yep, until next time, take care of yourself and each other. Let's go.
