Healing Trauma to Beat Addiction: A Conversation with Coach Blu and Marissa

Even the worst memory you have can be erased and replaced for what it really was, which is: you are still here, you are still conquering, you are still victorious and you're still a champion, and that is the real key you know.
Can trauma be a roadblock in addiction recovery? Coach Blu and Athletic Director Marissa from the 'Addict II Athlete Podcast' think so, and they’re here to help you tackle it head-on. In this episode, they dive into the deep connection between trauma and addiction, offering insights that could change your perspective on healing. The duo discusses how traumatic memories don't have to define your recovery journey.
They introduce EMDR therapy, a powerful tool that’s helping many of their 'athletes' move past painful experiences. Coach Blu and Marissa also highlight the importance of physical activity and recreation as part of the healing process. They believe that getting active can be a game-changer for those in recovery. But it’s not just about moving your body; it’s about shifting your mindset too.
The episode covers how thinking critically about addiction, rather than just feeling it, can make a huge difference. Effective communication is another key topic. Coach Blu emphasizes that even the worst memories can be reframed to show your resilience and strength. By the end of the episode, you'll feel empowered to take control of your recovery, armed with practical tips and the support of a community that understands what you’re going through.
Whether you're personally battling addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable tools and a fresh perspective on overcoming trauma.
