In the 1980s, Nancy Reagan coined the term, “Just say no!” and spearheaded the social aspect of the so-called war on drugs. It didn’t work, nor have any of the dozens of public, private, and international efforts to curb the disease of despair. Things have become so much worse that today, almost every single person listening has a friend or family member affected by addiction. My guest on this week’s podcast is a recovered addict herself and uses yoga as part of an integrated 12-step program to support others.

Listen and learn:

  • The importance of support for addiction recovery
  • The benefits of talk therapy vs. movement based therapy
  • How trauma can feel like it’s stuck physically
  • The integration of past, present and future self
