Matt Bishop on Healing, Mindfulness, and Recovery

Slowing down and paying attention to our bodies and their responses. We need to work this out in the brain, like I need to have a formula.
What happens when you mix a therapist with a knack for mindfulness and a therapy wolf dog? You get an episode of 'Tales of Recovery' that's as insightful as it is entertaining. This time, host Gris Alves welcomes San Diego-based Marriage and Family Therapist Matt Bishop to share his journey from personal healing to becoming a healer himself.
Their conversation covers a lot of ground, from the importance of slowing down and paying attention to our bodies to the role of empathy in overcoming addiction and mental health challenges. Matt's unique perspective is shaped by his own experiences with addiction and his dedication to helping others navigate their recovery paths. One of the highlights of this episode is Matt's emphasis on mindfulness.
He explains how practices like meditation can help us become more aware of our thoughts and emotions, allowing us to respond in healthier ways. They also dive into how childhood experiences can shape our mental health and why it's crucial to address these early influences. But it's not all serious talk. Matt brings humor into the mix, making the conversation feel like a chat with a wise friend.
He even talks about his new podcast, 'People I Love and You Should Too', where he interviews fascinating individuals full of life and creativity. If you're dealing with addiction, anxiety, or just looking for some peace in your life, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. It's a heartfelt discussion that underscores the power of empathy, forgiveness, and mindfulness in the healing process. Tune in for a dose of inspiration and some good laughs along the way.
