Nikki Myers: Healing Through Yoga and the 12 Steps

In recognizing that there is no thing, maybe that was a poor choice of words. And then it hit me, after all that stuff, I got to this place that I recognized, that you know I was in that chase, right.
Ever thought about how yoga could intertwine with the 12-step program to aid in addiction recovery? Nikki Myers has, and her journey is nothing short of transformative. In this episode of 'The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast', host Arlina Allen sits down with Nikki, the founder of y12sr, to explore her path from the depths of addiction to a place of peace and spirituality.
Nikki opens up about hitting rock bottom with crack cocaine and alcohol in 1987, facing a few relapses along the way, but ultimately finding solace in combining yoga with traditional recovery steps. Her story sheds light on the critical role of spirituality and community support in overcoming addiction. Nikki also dives into the common trap of 'if, then else' thinking and how it can hinder recovery, as well as the often-overlooked connection between workaholism and addiction.
This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear Nikki's inspiring story and discover how the fusion of yoga and the 12 steps can offer a unique path to healing.
