The healing a client goes through is not based upon whatsoever about what's happening on the outside world, because there are no problems on the outside world other than what the mind creates out of what it sees. What it sees on the outside world is only reflecting an internal state of mind.
Have you ever thought about how stillness could be the key to healing from addiction? In this episode of 'Native Addiction Healing', host Roland Martin, a seasoned drug and alcohol counselor at Epita Luto OTP, dives into the deep connections between trauma and addiction.

The episode doesn't just stop at personal healing; it also explores the broader societal implications of trauma and addiction. Roland calls for a reevaluation of systems like education and justice, suggesting a peacemaking approach that prioritizes healing and repairing community relations. For those looking to understand the deeper issues behind addiction or seeking practical tools for recovery, this episode offers valuable insights.
