Peer Recovery Support Series: The Science of Storytelling and the Process of Recovery
There is a lot of talk about the power of storytelling in the healing process, but do we know how storytelling actually works and how best to support those who are in a process of change using this powerful tool? In this webinar, we will identify four major tenets of the science of storytelling, as well as the impact of systems and stigma on the development of disvalued narratives in those who have experienced problematic substance use. Once we understand how these narratives are created, we will move on to explore the role of storytelling in recovery. We will explore the role of storytelling through the reauthoring process of creating newer, more optimistic stories and identifying the key principles that support the process of change, growth, and healing through the use of this powerful tool.
