Did You Know... Spirituality Is a Protective Factor in Recovery

Faith isn’t just comforting—it’s protective.

In this episode of The Recovery Couch, we explore how spirituality can act as a powerful shield in the recovery process. Studies show that individuals who lean into their faith or spiritual practices are more likely to maintain long-term sobriety, experience lower relapse rates, and find deeper meaning in their healing journey.

We dive into how a relationship with God provides purpose, community, accountability, and the strength to keep going—even when it’s hard. When everything else feels unstable, faith can be the solid ground that keeps us standing.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your spiritual life matters in your recovery, this episode will remind you: it may be your greatest asset.
