So I just think it's so important to consider that one of the reasons people are not getting well in treatment- I mean you know we have a terrible failure rate- is that their brain will not take in and utilize the new information.
Have you ever thought about how your brain could be rewired to support your journey to sobriety? In this episode of the Positive Sobriety Podcast, Sonnee Weedn, a therapist and recovery coach, brings a refreshing perspective on cognitive restoration. Weedn's journey from her pre-doc internship to becoming a trauma treatment specialist is nothing short of inspiring.
She dives into her collaboration with a neuro engineer to tackle the obsessive and compulsive aspects of addiction, offering listeners a glimpse into the cutting-edge techniques used in brain engineering. But that's not all. Weedn highlights the importance of holistic wellness—think nutrition, laughter, relationships, and even nature connections—as vital components of mental health. She doesn't just stop at theory; she encourages practical steps like brain evaluations to make informed changes.
Whether you're grappling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with actionable advice and heartfelt insights. Tune in to discover how a blend of science, spirituality, and everyday practices can pave the way for lasting recovery.
