Cravings and Triggers: Practical Tips for Addiction Recovery

Cravings are like that Five-Year-Old that's wanting candy, and if you give into it, then it'll come back just as strong.
Ever wonder why certain sights, sounds, or feelings make you crave a drink? Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes breaks it all down in this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast'. She explores the different types of triggers—whether they're sensory, emotional, or environmental—and how they can lead to intense cravings. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom. Dr. Snipes offers some solid strategies to cope, like the HALT method (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) and tips on creating a positive environment.
She also dives into distress tolerance and how changing your associations can make a big difference. Plus, she gives a fascinating look at the brain's role in all of this. Whether you're a counselor or someone navigating recovery, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you stay on track.
