Self-care is a revolutionary act and spiritual work can be a form of activism.
Ever wondered how to heal from trauma without hitting rock bottom? Rebecca Davison’s story might be just what you need to hear. After escaping an abusive marriage, Rebecca found herself leaning on alcohol to cope with PTSD. She didn’t see herself as an alcoholic but recognized that her drinking was a problem when it led to a psychotic episode with her boyfriend. That moment was her wake-up call.
In this episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast, hosted by Omar Pinto, Rebecca opens up about her unique path to recovery. She discovered the healing power of Yoga Nidra and essential oils, which helped soothe her nervous system and reduce emotional reactivity. Yoga Nidra, a form of guided meditation, played a crucial role in calming her vagus nerve, the body’s flight or freeze response often disrupted by trauma. Essential oils complemented this practice, offering deep emotional and cellular healing.
Rebecca’s journey is a testament to the power of holistic approaches in recovery. She emphasizes that self-care isn’t just a luxury; it’s a revolutionary act. By sharing her story, Rebecca hopes to inspire others to explore alternative healing methods and integrate self-care into their lives.
