    SCI Encouragement Group--The Best of Times

    In the latest edition of the Encouragement Group, host David Gerber takes a line from Charles Dickens "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times" and applies it to addiction. Hitting bottom is something no one wants to experience. However, bottom represents the first time for people to realize what worked yesterday, no longer works today, and represents a time to do something different-opening the door to so many good things. Michael Boccia adds to the discussion by sharing about the value of waiting and self-checking like a copy machine. Listen in as miracles will be shared.

Even the song from the popular musical "Annie" talks about the gray and lonely today while promising  a better tomorrow. Listen in as miracles will be shared.

    SCI Encouragement Group- Winners in Recovery

    In the latest edition of the Encouragement Group, host David Gerber takes paraphrases a portion of legendary NFL football coach Bill Parcel's induction speech into the Hall of Fame where he talks about winners and losers and relates this message to treatment and recovery. In treatment, those who are negative tend to find fault and complain in small groups, whereas those who are more successful understand the healthy concept of we, and have gratitude. Michael Boccia adds to the discussion by discussing how we often complain about things that we have control over, and we have capacity well beyond our self-imposed limitations.

    SCI Encouragement Group - Courage to be Imperfict

    In the latest edition of the Encouragement Group, host David Gerber discusses the concept of perfectionism, and how it exists among those addicted to substances. In recovery, perfectionism is a common cause of relapse, as many give up when things in recovery don't go perfectly. Michael Boccia chimes in by discussing how like a pebble thrown into the water, in recovery, we send out ripples to the world, and how we have the power to send out positive or negative ripples. Listen in as miracles will be shared.

    SCI Encouragement Group--The Revolutionary War & Recovery

    The Revolutionary War Battle of New York and Recovery:  In the latest edition of the Encouragement Group host David Gerber describes the similarity between the Revolutionary War's Battle of New York and Recovery. As the British commander failed to heed the words of his advisors, George Washington retreated from Brooklyn to Manhattan, losing the battle but saving the war. In recovery, how often do we fail to heed the advice of others, and treatment may be seen as a retreat from battle to win the war. Listen in as miracles will be shared.

    SCI Encouragement Group- You are Valuable Despite your Imperfections

    In the latest edition of the Encouragement Group host David Gerber takes out money and asks the audience who would like it. Then he crumples up the money, stomps on it and again asks if anyone was still interested, and of course the answer was yes. We still want the money because it, despite it's imperfections has not lost it's value. In addiction, we engage in actions that produce guilt and shame- yet it doesn't devalue us as human beings, and still deserve a life of sobriety. Michael Boccia chimes in by discussing how no matter how street smart we see ourselves, we have been conned by our drug of choice. Listen in as miracles will be shared.
