***Holistic Addiction Treatment offers a healing pathway to sustainable recovery
Experiencing a traumatic life event can often leave us feeling both mentally and spiritually debilitated. We are often unable to clearly see the road to recovery. Instead, we may find ourselves looking inside the hole of a deep abyss of bottomless pain. Somewhere along the way, we chose to “fill” the abyss with everything and anything to make the pain less; to make the sadness and the suffering go away…if only for a moment.

***Non 12 Step Addiction Treatment - Empowering our Young Adults
When we imagine our children becoming addicted to drugs we often envision dimly lit alleys filled with questionable characters persuading our impressionable children to smoke, snort, or even shoot illicit street drugs. However, the most realistic threat to our children’s sobriety is not in the street, but much closer. In fact, it is in your medicine cabinet.

***Holistic Addiction Treatment–Do your beliefs sabotage your recovery?
What role do your beliefs play in your ability to completely recover? Do your beliefs disempower you? A belief is a perception, conviction, or opinion that you hold about yourself, a situation, event, or others. Beliefs are not necessarily true or fact-based, however, they are something we hold internally within your soul and spirit as a truth. Beliefs can be extremely complex, but when it comes to defining our behavior, our beliefs can drive us to make assumptions, react quickly, and make precise decisions at both a conscious and subconscious level.

***The Mind-Body Connection, Epigenetics and Holistic Addiction Recovery
We used to believe that we are controlled by our genes and that DNA programs us like software does a computer. We thought that DNA communicated with us—as if we were downloading our fates—and that we had nothing to say about it. This was an incredibly disempowering view of how human life works. It put us at the mercy of what happened even before we were born.

***Holistic and Energy Psychology Treatments for PTSD
Psychological trauma can change the course of a person’s life and in some cases leave devastating life-long scars. Trauma can come from any situation that poses a threat to personal safety or sense of wellbeing. The events can be real or perceived; trauma is any event that the psyche can’t cope with or process as it happens. A traumatic event may be etched in our conscious memory, or it may be stored directly in the unconscious mind. In either case, the limbic brain creates coping mechanisms which keeps us in states of hyper vigilance and chronic fight or flight mode.
