Bernadette Gold on Spirituality and Addiction: Tools for True Healing

I don't think that I could help other people had my life not been so hellacious.
What if confronting trauma head-on could be the key to overcoming addiction? In this episode of 'Breaking Through Addiction', Dr. Robb Kelly and Jennifer Lovely sit down with Bernadette Gold, a spiritual teacher and mentor, to explore this very idea. Bernadette opens up about her unique approach to spirituality, which involves facing trauma rather than sidestepping it.
She shares her experiences as a medium and the hurdles that come with such a life, offering a candid look at the intersection of spirituality and recovery. The conversation touches on the pitfalls of spiritual bypassing, a common trap in many spiritual circles, where people use spiritual practices to avoid dealing with emotional pain. Bernadette stresses the importance of choosing a different path, one that avoids the dangers of opioid addiction and focuses on genuine healing.
The hosts and Bernadette also highlight the critical role of information for families affected by addiction, emphasizing that knowledge can be a powerful tool in the recovery process. This episode is packed with practical advice and heartfelt stories, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in for a blend of spiritual wisdom and actionable insights that can help you or your loved ones navigate the challenging journey of addiction recovery.
