Allison Janney on “Starting to Live a Life That’s Bigger Than You Thought Possible”

Allison Janney is a recovery advocate who recently opened up about the experience with addiction from her own life. “Addiction rips through so many families and mine is no exception. In 2011, I lost my brother Hal to this disease. He was an alcoholic. He was also one of my favorite people on this planet. He was incredibly charming and quick witted, kind and generous, smart and quick to laugh. I miss him every day”.

Addiction doesn’t need to be the end of the story. Janney went on to say, “My idea of recovery was limited, because I associated sobriety with stopping. You know, you get sober…you stop drinking, stop doing drugs…you just S-T-O-P. But my time on ‘MOM’ has taught me that recovery is actually about starting. Starting to live a life that’s bigger than you thought possible — where you can trust people and they can trust you, where you can heal relationships and let go of the past, where there’s no problem that you have to face alone. On ‘MOM’, I get to see characters who were broken and defeated by alcoholism become part of a community filled with support, acceptance and unconditional love — and as a result of that, completely turn their lives around”.

From Punk Rock Chaos to Yoga Cleanliness: Embracing Saucha in a Journey from Disorder to Discipline

I once lived in a one-towel punk rock household where nobody ever took out our empty beer cans. We’d sit around the living room floor—we didn’t have much in the way of furniture—contemplating bags and bags of empties and fantasize about rigging a pulley system that would lower the cans three floors down to the street. But nobody was willing to get off their butt and carry them.

Affirmations for Recovery: How They Can Help

Addiction recovery is a challenging path to take, and it takes more than just willpower to overcome it. Many people have used affirmations for recovery to help them in their journey toward abstinence. Affirmations are positive statements that you can repeat to yourself to help you achieve a specific goal. They work by rewiring the brain’s neural pathways, which can help change negative thought patterns and replace them with positive ones. But how effective are affirmations in addiction recovery, and what is the science behind them?
