We’re not only reconnecting with ourselves, but also with others and with God.

Finding the right program is essential when recovering from pornography use. Knowing what is available can help you suggest resources to help friends and family. Josh Otani has been working with the Men of Moroni and seen a huge, positive difference in his progress. This week, Creed and Crishelle talk with Josh about how this program has helped him establish safeguards, routines, and connection to help him along in his recovery. Learn what this resource has to offer.
In this episode:
- Safeguards, routines, and connection are important recovery tools.
- Find a routine to substitute the desire to view pornography with something healthier.
- Accountability with a trusted friend can help relinquish the relapses in recovery.
- Each routine should be personalized to accommodate one’s triggers.
