Addiction, Dependency, & Trauma

My lovely Co-Host, Elisabeth Kristof, is back with us again this week. We will be talking about our personal stories that we haven't expressed or talked about yet. That is our addictions and dependencies on substances other than our food habits. We will talk about the trauma and neurological components to addiction and give some helpful tools you can use for staying connected to your body.

In this episode, we share:

  • How compulsions are an adaptive response to providing relief
  • The difference between dependence and addiction
  • Physiological dependence vs. mental obsession
  • Our struggle and recovery with addiction
  • Understanding the neurology to better understand what is driving your addiction
  • How substances can blanket your emotions
  • Emotional dysregulation and flashbacks
  • Always creating safety in yourself as well as your environment
  • Ways to stay connected to your body using applied neurology and somatic practices
  • Self compassion
  • Don't go at it alone
  • CPTSD
