This little, innocent herb which Linda will elaborate on. I still can't wrap my head around that, you know? I mean, his addiction to Kratom basically started in the summer of 2014, and by 2015, he was gone.
Ever thought a natural herb could be both a savior and a threat? In this episode of 'The MAP', hosts Andrew Bernstein, Kris Long, and Willy Drinkwater dive deep into the controversial world of Kratom. Joined by guest Linda Mautner, they unravel the complex web surrounding this seemingly innocent herb. While some hail Kratom as a breakthrough in addiction recovery, others warn of its addictive properties and potential dangers.

The discussion doesn't stop there; the hosts explore how meditation and peer-to-peer support can be lifelines for families grappling with addiction.
