"If you’re not having a blast in your recovery – you’re not doing it right!"
What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Episode 372 of the Spiritual Underground Podcast brings us the compelling story of Lani Gonzales, a force for good and a multifaceted healer. As a clinical hypnotherapist, attorney, Reiki master, and keynote speaker, Lani shares her journey and insights into breaking free from self-doubt and addiction. She emphasises the importance of healing past wounds and reprogramming the subconscious mind, offering tools that have worked for both women and men alike.
Lani delves into the concept of the 'ick'—a powerful mental association that helps individuals detach from addictive behaviours by linking them to negative outcomes. This episode also explores how childhood experiences shape our adult lives, highlighting the critical period between zero and seven years old when our foundational beliefs are formed. Lani suggests that healing requires more than just understanding our pain; it involves addressing the core wounds and recognising our wholeness.
Host Dan Reeves engages with Lani on topics like the 12-step recovery process and the potential for a '13th step,' which goes beyond traditional methods to embrace holistic healing practices. Together, they discuss how personal growth and community support play pivotal roles in recovery, encouraging listeners to explore their inner worlds for true transformation. If you're curious about how others find strength in their sobriety journey, this episode offers a blend of practical advice and spiritual wisdom.
Could it be time to take that extra step in your own recovery? Reflect on what it means to be whole and consider the power of community in your healing process.
