Healing Through Compassion: Darren Littlejohn's Journey on Unpause Your Life

The idea that you can go back in and rewire the brain with some of these contemplative practices is really the root, because the Ptsd or the trauma is at the core of addiction and you can do something about it.
What if healing from addiction could be approached with compassion and mindfulness? That's exactly what Darren Littlejohn brings to the table in this episode of 'Unpause Your Life'. Hosted by Dr. Cali Estes and Master Coach Jenny Fontana, the conversation dives into Littlejohn's innovative program, Compassionate Recovery. As a recovering addict with over two decades of sobriety, Littlejohn blends his rich background in Zen and Tibetan Buddhism, psychology, and yoga to offer a unique perspective on addiction recovery.
His story isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about understanding the deep-seated trauma that often fuels it. Littlejohn discusses how practices like meditation and yoga can rewire the brain, helping individuals shift from chaos to calm. He also introduces a free course on Compassionate Recovery, making his methods accessible to everyone. Whether you're battling addiction or simply interested in holistic healing, this episode offers a fresh, empathetic approach to recovery.
