Healing the Spirit: The Hidden Key to Addiction Recovery

If this is a disease of the soul, part of it's because we've done things in the course of addiction driven by this part of the brain and we've actually done them and carried them out and can't explain why, don't have a clue why.
Imagine battling addiction not just in your body and mind, but in your spirit too. In this enlightening episode of 'Let's Talk Addiction & Recovery', host William C. Moyers chats with renowned psychiatrist and addiction recovery expert Marvin D. Seppala, MD, about the often-overlooked spiritual side of recovery. While physical and psychological treatments get most of the attention, Dr. Seppala sheds light on how spirituality can be a game-changer in overcoming addiction.
He believes that practicing honesty, humility, and compassion can transform lives, especially when it comes to rebuilding relationships. But don't worry, this isn't about pushing religion. It's about finding joy, love, and awe in everyday moments and leaning on others for support. Dr. Seppala emphasizes that these positive emotional experiences are crucial for healing the void left by addiction. Face-to-face interactions play a big role too, helping individuals form meaningful connections that foster recovery.
If you're looking for a fresh perspective on addiction treatment, this episode offers a compelling case for why spirituality matters.
