By repeating the pressure on the acupoints while verbalizing the issue, the amygdala's stress response is reduced and, at the same time, the hippocampus is simultaneously re-recording the problem, or the memory or whatever, without the psychological anxiety or stress symptoms that go along with it.
What if you could let go of the shame surrounding recovery and find a holistic way to heal? In this episode of 'CLEARHEADED: your sober-care podcast', host Cait Madry chats with Amy C. Willis, the founder of Hol + Well. Amy shares her deeply personal journey from severe alcohol addiction to celebrating six years of sobriety. She opens up about growing up with an alcoholic father and how his early passing influenced her path to recovery.
Amy dives into the emotional and practical aspects of becoming a non-drinker, discussing when and who to tell about your sobriety. She introduces listeners to EFT tapping, breaking it down into easy-to-understand steps that anyone can try. This technique, she explains, has been a game-changer in her holistic approach to recovery. The conversation also touches on the unique challenges faced by women and LGBTQ+ individuals in the recovery space.
Amy emphasizes the importance of addressing the whole person and creating a supportive environment tailored to individual needs. She highlights how curiosity can be a powerful entry point into sobriety and warns against the 'slingshot effect' of resistance. Throughout the episode, Amy underscores the importance of having a solid support system and formalized training in recovery. She reflects on how society's perception of sobriety is evolving and how media portrayals of non-drinkers are changing for the better.
This episode is packed with practical advice, personal anecdotes, and a call-to-action to explore the benefits of EFT tapping. Whether you're at the beginning of your sobriety journey or looking for new tools to support your ongoing recovery, this conversation offers valuable insights and encouragement.
