Today we have a candid conversation about a lesser discussed — yet largely vital — subcategory of self-work as it relates to early addiction recovery. Prior to entering a clean and sober lifestyle (the six stages of addiction recovery) one of the most beneficial things we can do (and true for ANY state of addiction recovery) is practicing the art of letting go — grief work.

In this episode we begin to explore early addiction recovery and how we can best advocate for our success in sustaining sobriety through learning— and relearning— to identify key core changes in how we feel both emotionally and physically. Listeners have the opportunity to practice in real time as host Crystal Moore presents an active insight exercise framed in the context of personal story telling and effective listening.
