165. A craving or a relapse is not a failure but can facilitate lasting change with Dr Luke Sniewski

Once again, I catch up with incredible Dr Luke Sniewski in this episode we chat about the freedom and life changing power of radical self acceptance. We chat about the importance of honest and acceptance playing a key role in addiction recovery. How a practice of stillness can transform us, and how stillness and self acceptance go hand in hand. How feeling into your body and tracking your feelings can transform us. We also chat about how a relapse can be a beautiful learning tool and becoming an active participant of our own lives. Dr. Luke Sniewski (Ph.D. in Psychology) is a New Zealand-based Wellbeing Coach and Somatic Therapist, he is a Certified Practitioner, facilitator of Compassionate Inquiry, a psychotherapeutic approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté. He is the author of the best-selling book Somawise: Get out of your head, get into your body, a book which has pretty much become my bible.
