Sober Edge

The Compassionate Side of Addiction


Listen Later

Compassion and Self-Compassion is critical for your AF journey.

One of the most important steps in our AF journey is learning how to move through life with more compassion and self-compassion. This one key shift can help us to broaden our perspective, let go of expectations and forgive ourselves.

In this episode of The Sober Edge podcast, I focus on three key areas:

  • Compassion for Others
  • Compassion for Self
  • Compassion for the World

Compassion for ourselves can be the most difficult. We are so often our worst critics and while others may more easily forgive and forget, we might find ourselves ruminating on the past. With self-compassion, we can explore a softer and gentler approach.

And, don't forget compassion towards your new AF life. Check out the show notes for 7 Ways to Observe and Act on Compassion in an Alcohol-Free Life.
