Recovery is more than just abstinence or disease management.
Ever wondered how a holistic approach can change the game in addiction recovery? In this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', host Mary Woods welcomes Holly Cook, the Executive Director of Treatment at Integrative Life Center in Tennessee. Holly shares her innovative wellness approach that goes beyond just abstinence or managing the disease. She believes true recovery involves making healthier choices in all aspects of life—from food and relationships to work and money.
Holly dives into the various therapeutic experiences offered at Integrative Life Center, such as group therapy, art and movement, psychodrama, and even acupuncture and yoga. These aren't just buzzwords; they're part of a comprehensive strategy to help people live authentically and joyously. Nutrition, often overlooked in traditional treatment models, also plays a crucial role in Holly's approach. She explains how a balanced diet can significantly impact recovery and overall well-being.
Holly and Mary also discuss the benefits of extended care programs and sober living, emphasizing the importance of addressing underlying issues that contribute to addiction. Holly's creation of the Morning Star program, an extended care initiative for women, serves as a testament to her commitment to holistic wellness. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in a more integrative approach to addiction recovery. Tune in to discover how addressing the whole person can lead to lasting change.
