Jonah Hill's 'STUTZ': Visualization Tools for Recovery
I obsessed over my physical body because partially I was looking in the mirror and I didn't like what I saw. I feel like that's like sort of my putting stuff, little stuff, out into the universe, and then they reply back to you, and now you're making this connection.
Picture this: a leading psychiatrist, Phil Stutz, with over 40 years of experience, helping world-class creatives and business leaders navigate their minds. In this episode, Mike and Nat from 'Recovery in the Middle Ages' dive into Jonah Hill's documentary 'STUTZ', which showcases Stutz's life and his unique visualization exercises known as The Tools. Ever wondered if visualization could aid your recovery journey? The guys break down how these techniques might just be the missing piece in your sobriety puzzle.
But that’s not all! They also compare Stutz's methods with Jung's approach, discuss the benefits of physical activity on recovery, and touch on the importance of connecting with others and practicing loving kindness in Buddhism. Plus, get their take on managing expectations in recovery and the role of sober bars as transitional spaces. This episode is a blend of personal insights, practical advice, and a touch of humor, making it a must-listen for anyone on the path to sobriety.
