Addiction is a very complex energy situation and many times, because of the trauma or the situation that the individual has been in, their energy has left their body.
Ever wondered what the real state of addiction looks like? In this compelling episode of 'Addiction 911', a panel of seasoned addiction professionals dives deep into the complexities of addiction, offering crucial insights for anyone affected by it.

Together, they tackle some of the most pressing issues in addiction treatment and recovery. One hot topic they discuss is medication-assisted treatment (MAT). While MAT can be a lifeline for some, reducing withdrawal symptoms and making recovery more manageable, it’s not without its critics. Some professionals argue against using any substances in treatment, raising thought-provoking questions about the best approach to recovery.
Lisa Richardson introduces the concept of energy therapy, explaining how trauma and other factors can disrupt a person’s energy. She believes that helping individuals restore their energy can bring about profound changes, allowing them to experience life more fully. This idea might sound unconventional, but it offers a fresh perspective on healing and recovery. The episode also sheds light on the ripple effects of addiction on families and communities.
The panelists share their experiences and strategies for navigating these challenges, emphasizing the importance of a supportive network in the recovery process. This episode is packed with valuable information and diverse viewpoints that can help you better understand the multifaceted nature of addiction. Whether you're supporting a loved one or seeking insights for yourself, this discussion provides a wealth of knowledge and practical advice.
