Episode 269: Acceptance vs. Acquiescence and Staying Sober Through Tough Times

About this episode
Tawny and Lisa get back to basics and the Serenity Prayer. Whether your Higher Power is God, the universe, or a stick of incense, this episode is for you. Even if the whole "Higher Power thing" is not for you, knowing what we can and cannot control is a key tool in staying sober. It’s not acquiescing or giving up if what you need to do right now is take care of yourself physically and mentally, and no more than that. Rest is essential. Letting go of what you can’t control helps tremendously. Music Minute features the Dropkick Murphys and the musical Rent Watch The Dropkick Murphys Made in the USA  Order The Sobriety Deck  Listen to The Sobriety Deck Playlist by Hannah Gardner Order Tawny’s book, DRY HUMPING: A Guide to Dating, Relating, and Hooking Up Without the Booze Subscribe to Tawny's newsletter  "Beyond Liquid Courage" Order Tawny’s new NA drink, (parentheses) Purchase Lisa’s memoir, Girl Walks Out of a Bar
