Mindfulness in Recovery: Insights from Dr. Elizabeth A.R. Robinson

Mindfulness practices are effective in supporting sustained recovery from substance use disorders. This presentation will describe theory and research supporting mindfulness, demonstrate mindfulness techniques and provide opportunities for the audience to experience and cultivate mindfulness, and review the evidence of the positive effects of mindfulness on recovery.
Ever felt overwhelmed by the chaos of recovery? Dr. Elizabeth A.R. Robinson offers a lifeline with her presentation on mindfulness. With decades of experience and training under mindfulness guru Jon Kabat-Zinn, Dr. Robinson delves into how mindfulness can be a game-changer for those battling substance use disorders. She breaks down the science and theory behind mindfulness, showing how it can help regulate emotions and develop a deeper awareness of the present moment.
What’s more, she differentiates mindfulness from meditation, making it clear that mindfulness is about being present, while meditation focuses on concentration and breath control. Dr. Robinson also provides practical mindfulness exercises that listeners can try out themselves. This episode is part of the Dawn Farm Education Series, which has been a beacon of support and information for over two decades. Perfect for anyone in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical advice and hope.
