Two of the best ways you could ever increase your overall mental and physical health is just by taking in enough antioxidants which neutralize free radicals, and taking in enough anti-inflammatories, natural anti-inflammatories- or doing other things to keep your inflammation down.
Imagine finding a soothing cup of tea that could ease the tough days of post-acute withdrawal. In this episode of Elevation Recovery, co-host Matt Finch shares his go-to herbal remedies that act like natural benzodiazepines. These teas might be the gentle nudge you need to get through the second phase of drug or alcohol withdrawal, known as PAWS (Post-Acute Withdrawal Syndrome).
Whether it's anxiety, depression, insomnia, or muscle tension that's got you down, Matt's herbal suggestions could offer some much-needed relief. Ever heard of chamomile binding to GABA receptors in your brain? Or lemon balm calming mild to moderate anxiety? Matt dives into these and other herbs like passionflower, kava, and valerian root, explaining how they can help alleviate those lingering symptoms. But he doesn't stop there.
He emphasizes that while these natural remedies are fantastic, they might not be a one-size-fits-all solution. Sometimes, integrating them with traditional therapies can make all the difference. For those grappling with opioid addiction, Matt also introduces his Ultimate Opiate Detox Course, a comprehensive guide packed with strategies to help you on your recovery journey. Whether you're new to the world of herbal teas or looking for additional tools to support your recovery, this episode offers a wealth of information.
Tune in to learn how a simple cup of tea could become a comforting ally in your battle against addiction.
