Healing the Body and Mind: The Physical Side of Addiction Recovery

The biggest difference with my finances now, as opposed to then, is I'm very proactive.
Ever thought about how addiction messes with your body as much as your mind? In this episode of 'The 12th Step Podcast', Gary, Mike, and Daniel tackle the often-overlooked physical toll of addiction. They dive into how addiction can wreak havoc on your sleep, nutrition, and even personal hygiene. But it’s not all doom and gloom—they also share practical tips for turning things around. One key takeaway?
Improving your sleep habits can be a game-changer in reducing the risk of relapse. The hosts suggest working with a therapist or counselor to get your sleep back on track. They also talk about how financial stress can be a huge trigger for addictive behaviors and offer advice on managing your finances to create a more stable recovery environment. And let's not forget self-care!
Simple acts like regular haircuts, exercise, and eating well can boost your self-worth and overall quality of life. This episode is packed with down-to-earth advice and hope for anyone looking to heal both body and mind.
