On this week’s episode of In The Circle, we welcome Stuart, who is celebrating one year of sobriety from long-term cannabis use. Stuart's success stands as a beacon of hope for those struggling to let go of cannabis, showing that recovery and thriving are possible.

In this episode, he asks a question many of us can relate to: how can I break free from negative thinking patterns?

How can we shift from negative thinking to a more realistic and positive outlook? The recovery journey can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it is not uncommon to occasionally feel stuck in old thinking and behavior patterns.

By cultivating self-awareness and challenging those limiting beliefs, we can gradually move from a mindset of negativity to one that embraces possibility.

It takes effort and intention, but every step forward opens the door to new perspectives and greater mental clarity.

There's always a way to break free from the cycle of negativity, and with the right tools and support, you can reshape your mindset toward a more empowering and realistic outlook.

Tommy Discusses:

• How to let go of your negative thoughts
• Why self-awareness can feel overwhelming in early recovery
• Shifting your thought process in real-time
• Why missteps along the way are actually opportunities
