Five Building Blocks of Recovery
The Five Building Blocks of Recovery is a mental health podcast for people in recovery from one or more mental health conditions, their friends and family, and those in the mental health field who are providing support and treatment.
The podcast will be partly educational and partly conversational; some episodes will focus on one or more aspects of each of the Five Building Blocks, while others will consist of interviews with people in recovery or people with expertise on one or more building blocks.
Ultimately the goal is to leave you with simple ideas and action steps for your mental health recovery journey or for someone you care about.
New episodes typically come out every two weeks on Sunday afternoons at 3PM, Pacific Time.
Peer support group facilitator, peer support specialist, and professional mental health speaker Jared Bendifallah talks about mental health through the lens of his Five Building Blocks of Recovery which can provide a roadmap for recovery – a simple yet profound framework -- for those living with a mental health condition (and inspiration for their loved ones).
Remember, recovery is possible, and hope is real 😊

Five Building Blocks of Recovery
The Importance of Having Non-Clinical Support (Friends, Family...) along the Mental Health Recovery Journey
In this episode I talk about why having a support system outside of having a therapist is so essential along the mental health recovery journey.
I also share ideas for how you can expand your support system and what it can look like to actually ask for support.
You don't have to go through the recovery journey alone. Everyone deserves support.
