I really think the 12 steps offer this potential for learning healthy relationship, right? Learning that we can turn to others to ask for help, learning that when we reach out, we're going to be met. Someone's going to be there responding, learning it's okay to be vulnerable, to cry, to be angry, you know, to be fearful, all these things that many of us feel like we need to hide from the world and we get to be seen.
Imagine being able to heal from trauma and addiction not just through your mind, but through your body as well. In this episode of 'Recover Your Soul', Rev. Rachel Harrison sits down with Nina Pick, the author of 'The Mind Body Guide to the Twelve Steps'. They dive into the world of somatic therapy, exploring how trauma and addiction manifest physically and how we can use our bodies to find healing.
Nina shares her expertise on the profound dialogue between our minds and bodies, shedding light on the concept of neuroception – our internal sense of safety. This conversation reveals how understanding and working with this sense can help us navigate the complexities of trauma. Nina’s approach goes beyond traditional 12-step recovery, integrating somatic practices to offer a holistic path to healing. She emphasizes the importance of self-compassion and heartfulness, particularly when tackling the fourth and fifth steps.
The episode also touches on the powerful impact of group energy in the healing process. Whether you're on a recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into how somatic therapy can foster deeper healing and connection.
