The truth is like yoga says: there really is no separation between the mind, the body. Right, we think that that the solution to the cognitive stuff, you know, lies in cognitive therapies, cbt and and all its derivatives and other forms of cognitive therapies. It really lives in our bodies.
Imagine blending the ancient wisdom of yoga with the structured support of twelve-step recovery. That's exactly what Nikki Myers, the creator of Yoga of 12 Step Recovery (Y12SR), has achieved. In this heartfelt episode of the Luminous Recovery Yoga Podcast, host Kari Doherty sits down with Nikki to explore her personal journey through addiction and recovery, and how she discovered the powerful intersection between these two worlds. Nikki's story is one of resilience and transformation.
She opens up about her struggles and triumphs, shedding light on how yoga became a cornerstone in her recovery process. The conversation dives into the concept that 'the issues live in our tissues', highlighting how trauma and addiction can manifest physically in our bodies. Nikki passionately discusses how yoga helps to release these deep-seated issues, promoting holistic healing. Kari and Nikki also talk about the importance of creating supportive environments for those in recovery.
Nikki shares her insights on the 'job of subtraction', a unique approach to chipping away at addiction by gradually removing harmful elements from one's life. This episode is a treasure trove of practical advice and inspiring stories, perfect for anyone looking to understand the profound connection between yoga and recovery. Whether you're new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, Nikki's wisdom and Kari's empathetic hosting make this episode a must-listen.
