For an addict like me, I needed really to seriously combine these two things, that there were some things going on at the level of the body and the energy that I needed to address along with the cognitive work that I did in the-step program, but I couldn't keep them in separate boxes, that they needed to be combined in such a way that they were all a part of what I like to call now my sustainable platform for recovery.
Nikki Myers has faced the darkness of addiction and come out the other side with a powerful message of hope. In this episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, she sits down with host Omar Pinto to share her remarkable journey through 40 years of drug abuse, alcoholism, relapse, and ultimately, recovery. Nikki's story is one of resilience and transformation, as she found a unique path to healing by blending yoga with the traditional 12-step program.
This combination became the cornerstone of her sustained recovery and led her to create the y12sr program, which integrates body, mind, and spirit in the recovery process. Throughout the episode, Nikki opens up about the importance of embodiment, radical self-acceptance, and staying connected to a supportive community. Her insights offer a fresh perspective on how yoga can enhance the recovery journey and provide a holistic approach to overcoming addiction.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Nikki's story is sure to inspire and offer practical tools for finding balance and peace.
