I think the biggest thing is plugging yourself in and being open to that, because in my past experience I would just go, this hurts too bad. And there's something that calms your nervous system down. If it is a place where you feel safe, yeah, I think that's why a home group is so important, so important, and if meetings aren't a place that you feel safe, you got to find someplace where you feel safe, especially if you've experienced any kind of trauma or anything in your life.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn your life around after years of addiction and trauma? In this episode of 'Radio Rehab with Dayna Keyes', you'll meet Colleen O, a long-time family friend of Dayna's, who opens up about her transformative journey. Colleen, who has been sober for many years, delves into her experiences with alternative healing methods, specifically Somatic Experience (SE), and how they played a crucial role in her recovery.
The conversation kicks off with a poignant discussion about the day Colleen decided to end her run with alcohol—a decision intertwined with the passing of Dayna's father. This episode isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about finding the strength to face deeply rooted traumas and discovering effective ways to heal.
Colleen and Dayna explore various topics, including the importance of supportive communities, the relevance of the ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) study, and how home groups can offer a safe space for recovery. Colleen's insights into PTSD and trauma provide valuable perspectives for anyone grappling with similar issues. Dayna's empathetic interviewing style makes this episode both heartfelt and informative.
Whether you're in recovery yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply interested in alternative healing methods, this episode offers a blend of personal stories and expert advice that can inspire and enlighten. Tune in to hear Colleen O's compelling story and learn how Somatic Experience helped her overcome the challenges of addiction and trauma. This episode is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of finding the right support system on the path to recovery.
