Forming A Spiritual Connection In Recovery w/Chrystal Cuellar
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Chrystal Cuellar is a sober, Christian Life Coach who helps women ditch alcohol and become a warrior of Christ. Going through her own journey of sobriety and finding Christ again, led her to where she is today. Before letting go of alcohol she was a huge binge drinker, in a very toxic relationship, and without a relationship with Christ.
Chrystal talks about codependency in relationships as an addict as well as finding her way out of negative thinking patterns and the lies she told herself (for example: “I’m not good enough”.)
Reminding ourselves that while we may feel a certain way about ourselves, feelings are not facts. We must learn how to change the negative thoughts if they are not true, and accept them if they are.
Chrystal and I also talk about the importance of finding a spiritual connection outside ourselves. Having a relationship with Jesus is not necessarily the same as practicing a man-made religion. It's more about following God and letting God heal us as opposed to following and depending on people (in the church).
Chrystal is running a 4 week program right now called Sober And Free. Check out the link for more information.
