Listen Later

This is part 2 of my interview with holistic healer and addiction recovery specialist Mike Govoni. To listen to part one, go to Episode 41: Addiction & Recovery — Consciousness Prevents Relapse.

In this episode with Mike, we...

  • discuss the importance of honoring the act of putting the substance down as its own step in recovery and at any point in the healing journey
  • talk about titrating trauma out of the nervous system
  • discuss the completion of trauma cycles
  • talk about how wild animals discharge trauma energy from their bodies and how that relates to humans
  • discuss Mike's hospital work in Boston during the opioid epidemic
  • talk about the role of spirituality and consciousness in addiction recovery
  • challenge the efficacy of 12-step programs
  • share that addiction is an opportunity to awaken consciousness
  • talk about Christ consciousness (in a very non-religious way)
