Addiction Recovery

The Role of Faith and Spirituality in Supporting Addiction Recovery

PRAYER AND MEDITATION –

Sept. 8, 2023 – Faith, irrespective of whether it’s tied to a specific religious doctrine or a more general belief in a higher power, often embodies hope. In times of difficulty, faith can provide a sense of purpose and meaning that guides individuals through their darkest moments. When people confront mental health issues or addiction, faith offers a steadfast source of hope. Many individuals turn to prayer, meditation, or religious rituals as coping mechanisms during times of distress. These practices offer emotional relief and solace when dealing with conditions, such as anxiety, depression, or addiction.

Religious and faith-based groups provide a built-in support system that can help combat feelings of isolation and encourage people to reach out for help and encouragement during the times when they are struggling to overcome addiction. Within these groups there may be others who are also battling addiction, fostering a sense of belonging and common ground.
