Growing up in a Jewish community, Jacob Mack was introduced to alcohol at the early age of 8 years old.  Now at the age of 22, he recently celebrated 1 year Sober. He is a music fan in Recovery and had originally heard of The Wharf Rats recovery meetings at Grateful Dead concerts.  Since he is a fan of Electronic Dance Music, Jacob searched for recovery groups in this scene and came across 'Ravers For Recovery'.  He also came across the Insomniac Consciousness Group and that is where we connected with him.    He recently moved to Brooklyn, New York and loves this new sober way of life.

On this episode we are very grateful to have had the opportunity to  speak with June Deuell aka DJ June. She has been Sober for 14 years and  definitely knows how to still have fun without the need for alcohol.   While being sober, she has partied with Boys Noize, Justice, and has  been a DJ for several events including Sans Bar. Being that during the  time of this recording New York City is the epicenter for the  CoronaVirus, June expresses how grateful she is to have the skills she  has learned in Recovery and how those skills help while being in  quarantine. Listen to DJ June on MixCloud: Mixcloud.com/djmissjuned

I this video, Eric discusses Recovery and Relapse.



Many people think that recovery is simply a matter of not using drugs. They consider a relapse a sign of complete failure, and long periods of abstinence a sign of complete success. Relapse may be the jarring experience that brings about a more rigorous application of the program of Recovery. Dishonesty and self-deceit prevent many from enjoying complete recovery and acceptance within society. Complete and continuous abstinence, however, in close association and identification with others is the best ground for growth.
