  • S6E10 Tools & Techniques for Better Mental Health and Life Balance

    S6E10:

    There is no shortage of tools & techniques to deal with the messiness of life.  Red Roof Recovery is far more than a treatment to overcome addictions.  Red Roof Recovery helps people deal with the multitude of mental health illnesses that plague our society.
     
    On this episode of the Red Roof Recovery, Tanya talks about how challenging it can be to live in an achievement-oriented society while finding life balance because we are programmed by:
    • Social and cultural conditioning that dictates how we should act, look, and think.
    • Media messages that tell us happiness is just one product or procedure away.
    • A relentless economy that fosters an endless cycle of work, debt, and consumption, leaving little room for introspection.
      • Remember...
      You are not the sum of your setbacks - you are the hero of your relentless comebacks!
      Always talk to yourself like you'd talk to a good friend.
       
      Red Roof Recovery is located in the beautiful lakeside town of Goderich, where we specialize in mental health, addictions, and relapse prevention. Connect with others who understand what you’re going through. Our expert-led programs offer a sense of belonging and encouragement.

    • How is Addiction related to the Stages of Grief?

      In this episode of the Red Roof Recovery, Tanya and Lance share some insights about how their 30+ years of marriage barely survived Tanya's addictions.

      Lance talks about how he experienced the "7 Stages of Grief" while living through Tanya's addictions and recovery!

      Moving to Spain in 2007 was the pivotal point for Tanya to hit what's referred to as "rock bottom."

      After a 30-day stay in rehab - and 8 years of relapsing while in the 12-step programs of Alcoholic's Anonymous & Narcotics Anonymous - Tanya says her path to freedom finally came from an evidence-based program called SMART.
