<p>We are back!!  In this episode, I discuss my 2-year hiatus.  We are rebranding and starting again but you can expect the old format of mindfulness, interviews, and discussions on how we can recover from trauma, repair the brain, and lead abundant lives.  I include a really quick body scan here for relaxation anywhere in 5 minutes!  New episodes restart by January 2021!</p>

The Deep Grief: Surviving the Loss of A Child

Mindful Recovery is a podcast devoted to helping individuals who are struggling with trauma and addictions.  Mindfulness is a research-based method for dealing with anxiety and trauma.  Psychological and neuroscience studies have found that it is possible to increase the growth of neuronal pathways and retrain our brains in coping with these issues.  Basic techniques like learning to pay attention to our own breathing and looking honestly and non-judgmentally at our broken spaces can begin to create an emotional holding space that allows us to live without reacting to the pain and begin deciding how we want to act on the world we find ourselves in.  This becomes the beginning of recovery and, thus, the beginning of a new and abundant life in recovery.  Whether you struggle with anxiety, mental illness, complex trauma, PTSD, addictions or a multitude of other problems, becoming mindful is the first step along that path.  Here we provide practice, education and support in beginning your journey to healing.
