Gigi Langer's Path to Sobriety and Serenity

My belief is we need to connect with something bigger than our own fear, and I think of it as a fearful self, um, and then there's a loving self, or a higher self, or a true self or however you want to frame it, but there's a place of wisdom and light within each of us, I believe.
Ever wonder how someone can transform their life from addiction to tranquility? In this episode of 'Inside Addiction,' host Luke Worsfold sits down with Gigi Langer, a former addict and the author of '50 Ways to Worry Less Now.' Gigi's story is a testament to the power of change and the human spirit's resilience. Thirty years ago, she relied on alcohol, romance, and career success to calm her nerves.
But when she quit drinking, she faced an even bigger challenge: her own thoughts. Gigi shares how she tackled her 'thinking problem' with tools from therapy, recovery programs, scientific research, and spiritual teachings. She dives into practical tips for managing stress and anxiety without turning to substances. One of her key insights is the importance of connecting with something greater than our fears.
Whether you call it a higher self, true self, or place of wisdom, Gigi believes that tapping into this inner light can guide us through tough times. Throughout the episode, Gigi also highlights the benefits of mindfulness meditation and the support of therapy and sponsorship, especially for those who grew up in alcoholic families. Her journey is filled with practical advice and inspiring moments that can help anyone looking to overcome anxiety and stress.
Tune in to hear Gigi's uplifting story and discover how you can apply her strategies to your own life. Whether you're struggling with addiction or just looking for ways to worry less, this episode offers valuable insights and hope.
