You can teach your brain anything. You can reprogram it to believe anything. It takes some really hard work, but it's entirely possible. My addiction was a result of my brain over-learning the importance of a substance, and because I used alcohol so much it began to recognize it as something that I needed.
Have you ever felt lost in the labyrinth of addiction and recovery? Denise Walker's podcast, Detox Podcast, offers a poetic map through this complex journey. In the first episode, Denise takes us into the heart of her poem 'Maze' from her collection 'Pick Your Poison'. She opens up about her own struggles with mental health and alcoholism, shedding light on the stigma that often keeps people from seeking the help they need.
Denise doesn't just talk about the problem; she also explores the brain's incredible ability to reprogram itself, a crucial element in overcoming addiction. Her raw and honest storytelling is both inspiring and empowering, reminding listeners that they are not alone. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of personal reflection and practical advice that could be just what you need to hear today.
