On this week's episode of In The Circle, we're joined by Elaine, who draws our attention to one of the most challenging scenarios in all of addiction: What steps can parents take to support their grown child in addiction recovery?How do I remain silent when my child continues to make bad choices? I don't want to enable them. I don't know how to support them. What can I do? This inquiry will bring up important questions about how to position oneself to be of maximum use to a person who is struggling with active addiction.This is one of those inquiries that will resound across the recovery community globally. I don't know of a family that hasn't been touched by addiction. This is an extremely relevant and important inquiry as we seek to be better, more skillful, and loving when supporting other people who might be struggling with active addiction.Tommy Discusses:It's not your job to fix your child's addictionHow to support someone in recoveryLive your life without sufferingThe complexity of addictionThe Limits of Parental InfluenceLetting go with love Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

In this episode, we explore the often silent battle with sexual and porn addiction.Our guest, Patrick, holds a Master's degree in counseling from Moody Theological Seminary-Michigan, specializing in the intersection of psychology, therapy, and theology. He is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan with a focus on sexual addiction since 2020.Patrick is affiliated with various professional organizations such as the American Counseling Association (ACA), AACC Professional Life Coach Certification, Green Cross Member of Traumatology (GCAT), Gottman Level 1 trained, Michigan Counselors Association (MCA), and the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC).Today's discussion marks the first part of a two-part series delving into the complexities of porn and sex addiction, topics often brushed aside due to societal taboos. Despite its prevalence, many individuals hesitate to seek help for fear of judgment or ostracization.Statistics from Psychology Today reveal that the average age of first exposure to porn is 13, setting the stage for a potential lifelong struggle. Shockingly, around 80% of men and 30% of women (45% when considering women who watch with their partners) engage with porn on a weekly basis.It's crucial to recognize that sexual and porn addiction is more widespread than commonly acknowledged. Our aim in discussing this issue is to break the silence, provide education, and extend resources to those grappling with this addiction.In my conversation with Patrick we discussWhat causes porn addictionHow to tell if you're a sex addict and or porn addictHow social media affects or promotes porn addictionHow therapy can help with recoveryHow emotions and mental health correlate with compulsive sexual behaviorsHow porn addiction affects romantic relationships and, How faith and religion play a role in recovery Where to find Patrick/resources: https://northpoint.buzzsprout.com/www.northpoint-counseling.comwww.treatsexualaddiction.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-eilers-ma-lpc-csat-310036b9/Instagram: rated_pgeTime stamps: 0:00 Intro/Exploring Porn and Sex Addiction14:02 Understanding Factors Influencing Sexual Behavior20:47 Navigating Relationships and Sexual Addiction26:45 Navigating Betrayal and Trauma in Relationships37:10 Brain Pathways and Overcoming Addictive Behaviors42:06 Understanding Addiction and Triggers54:20 Overcoming Shame and Embracing Identity1:02:11 Outro*IF OUR CONTENT IS VALUABLE TO YOU, PLEASE RATE AND REVIEW THE SHOW*Instagram: @awordtothewisepodYoutube: A Word To The Wise PodcastEmail: awordtothewisepod@gmail.com
In this episode of In the Circle, I am joined by Bernice, a distinguished addiction counselor and fellow traveler in long-term recovery. She inquires: How Can I Inspire Others Into Addiction Recovery? We dive deep into the complex world of individuals battling severe addiction issues compounded by intergenerational trauma, homelessness, and a profound sense of hopelessness. We also explore what it means to inspire recovery and hope in those who feel forgotten by society, and possible solutions we can offer. This episode is a candid look into the intersection of addiction with societal failings, reminding us that not everybody has someone to turn to in their time of need. Be someone's angel today and reach out to those in the grip of severe addiction.Tommy discussesHow you can offer support to someone going through addiction Whether or not medication-assisted treatment is usefulHow we can care better for those battling trauma and addictionHow to reconnect with love Why yoga, meditation, and breathwork can change your lifeLooking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?

With Social Media, we simply can't do it all. There are too many platforms and too many different content types, and if we tried to consistently do all of them, or even a handful of them, we'd have no time to do our actual job!But the fear of missed opportunities (by not participating on all the popular apps) is real! So how do we balance the need to share on social media (yes, we do need to use it!) with staying productive and even staying sane?Please join me as I explore the topic of Social Media. THIS IS A RE-RUN EPISODE FROM MY PATRONS ONLY SUMMER SHORTS SERIES———In This EpisodeWhat the heck am I doing on Social Media? Taking stock of all the apps I share onMy experience: Social media is like a gambling addictionHow social media can get out of control and steal all your timeIt's not you that's crazy — it's social media! We're all expected to make all this very time-intensive content for free, at the expense of getting to do our actual work.Myth: content creation = the most important work we doPositives of Social Media: Gives us a platform for sharing and building an audience around the work we're excited about.SM is the tool, not us — we shouldn't be working for SM, it needs to work for us.Why we NEED to use SMHow to know what to focus on: What are the 1 or 2 platforms that do the following:1) Makes us more productive/creative2) Somehow helps generate income or new businessLet all the others go. Abandon them, or just relegate them to lower, more supporting roles for your main SM platforms.Backwards relationship: Making content to share, vs. Sharing what we make.Focus = Sacrifice. By letting go of some SM apps, you WILL miss out on some opportunities.Choosing apps that help you share what you want to share best.Depth and Focus are more important than trying to "do it all".How does your social media use (as a content creator) help or hinder your creative work?Conclusion: Asking what value our content provides for others?———What Social Media Works Best For You?Please share your thoughts! What apps work best for the kind of content you want to share? What do you think about making content to share vs. sharing work you made for some other reason? How has sharing on SM helped or hindered your productivity or creativity?Please let me know — I love hearing your thoughts as you listen along.HOW TO SUPPORTThank you for listening/watching!01 — Share this episode/podcast with a friend.

For children to be apprentices of Jesus, the way we use technology cannot continue. The amount, and the way technology is used today, where tech addiction is on the rise, we are robbing our children to learn self-control, empathy, goodness, and kindness. Technology preys on certain parts of the brain, especially at a young age, that does not allow them to develop the relational devices required for true heart connection with their families and peers. There is a growing disconnect between children and God, which is why we have welcomed back Daniel Sih to shed some light on how to bring our children back to themselves, their humanity, and God. Daniel is a productivity consultant, professional speaker and award-winning author. He is passionate about changing the way we interact with the digital world in life and work. Daniel has recently published a book called, Raising Tech-Healthy Humans: How to reset your children's tech-habits and give them a great start to life, in hopes to raising awareness around how our children's tech habits are taking away a piece of their humanity, and how to get it back Today's episode is full of practical knowledge from Daniel's latest book, explaining why technology is affecting children, as well as adults, the lasting repercussions of too much tech use, how to limit screen time after having allowed too much, and tips on what kind of tech use is beneficial and what isn't. Tune in to hear advice and to learn how you can change the way you and your children use technology so you can get back to the simple things, and God. TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODEDaniel Sih's backgroundWhy Daniel decided to move from pastor to businessmanHow tech culture has changed through the years for young peopleThe difference between your downstairs brain and upstairs brainEmergence of increased neurodiversity in children due to technologyPrinciples of leaning forward and back, and near and far workHow do you limit your child's screen time in a lasting way?Adults struggling with connection due to addiction to technologyThe humanity we lose through tech addictionHow ordinary and mundane experiences shape our livesCLC Website: https://www.clchq.org/Contact Mike Hatch: mhatch@clchq.orgContact Chris Bolinger: https://chrisbolinger.com/author/Men's Devotional: Daily Strength for Men: A 365-Day Devotional

After experiencing a 16-day stay in the ICU involving multiple organ failures resulting from her drinking, Jessica finally made the decision to start her recovery journey.

JR Spear is a military veteran and a martial arts coach. JR tells the story of how he was injured in an ambush while at a walking checkpoint in 2007, and how this experience has shaped his approach to life. JR Spear shares his story of going through war and coming home to a broken marriage and depression and his journey to recovery. He eventually sought help from a therapist, which led to him being diagnosed with chronic PTSD. He also highlights how when you lose your identity and purpose, it is hard to know what you are chasing after and where you are going. One of the things that people value most in life is their own name, and how a powerful name is created by describing who they are and what their values and beliefs are.

Why do people with Anorexia feel driven to exercise even at a dangerously low weight? Although it appears paradoxical, this behavior is actually very logical when looked at through the lens of the Adapted to Flee Famine Hypothesis! The AFFH proposes Anorexia to be the result of three core adaptations: restriction, hyperactivity, and denial of starvation. In part 4 of this 7-part series, we unpacked restriction. In this 5th part, we're going to be looking specifically at hyperactivity! You'll learn:Why hyperactivity would have facilitated survival in times of famineHow the hyperactivity component of Anorexia can be understood using animal modelsWhy weight loss leads to increased hyperactivity Hormones involved in exercise addictionHow to break the hyperactivity cycleReady to FULLY recover from Anorexia?

In this episode, you'll hear from recovery coach Dr. Bob Weathers as he explains:What is shame and guilt in addictionHow shame and guilt are felt in the bodyHow to combat negative shame and guilt in recoveryResources mentioned in the show:Learn more about Dr. BobYour Vitality Project Youtube video seriesIn the Realm of Hungry Ghosts by Gabor MateThe Craving Mind by Jusdon BrewerThe Addictive Brain by Thad PolkFor substance use or mental health support for teens and young adults call (855) 958-5511 or live chat with us at https://www.sandstonecare.com/Why You're Experiencing Guilt & Shame When you're struggling with substance abuse and addiction, you will do things you wouldn't dream of doing sober, just to survive the day. When you're dependent on a substance, you have to find a way to get that substance, and that dependence doesn't often leave room for caring about the lengths you went to in order to satisfy your craving. After beginning the journey to recovery, it can be very common to start feeling guilty and ashamed of the things you did while in active addiction. It can be easy to dwell on these dark emotions and to feel overwhelmed by them, but sitting in them for too long is a good way to set yourself up for a relapse.Breaking The Cycle of Guilt & Shame in Addiction RecoveryBreaking the cycle of guilt and shame that is often present in addiction recovery is no small task. Here are a few things you can do to bring yourself out of these feelings.Recognize That Feelings of Guilt & Shame are Counter-Productive. As you come out of active addiction, It's easy to be overly critical of yourself as well as the things that you did while you weren't sober. No one deserves to be plagued by guilt and shame, and dwelling on these emotions is nothing more than self-destructive.Ask For Forgiveness. Everyone makes mistakes. Choosing to change your life and fight against your addiction is an extremely courageous decision, and part of recovery is making amends and asking those you have wronged for forgiveness. While they may not be in a place to be able to forgive you immediately, you will have done your best to make amends and put your actions behind you.Let Go of What You Cannot Control. The only person you are truly in control of is yourself. There are so many things that are outside of your control that can't alter or change, your past being one of them. Holding onto the things you did in active addiction, the guilt of hurting people, or the shame of having an addiction won't help your recovery, it will only drag you backward. Letting go of the things in your past is a big step towards being free from addiction.Forgive Yourself. Learning to forgive yourself is a long process. Dwelling on the things that you've done in the past is not constructive or beneficial to you. Your past is not what matters, what matters are the choices you make today.
Turning Season: News & Conversations on Our Adventure Toward a Life-Sustaining Society
Raise your hand (or, better yet, leave a comment on the show notes, so I can see it too) if you've ever dreamt of a political figure you strongly dislike. When they showed up in dream-form, how did you engage with them? When dreamers have shared dreams of political figures who were the object of anger or disgust, I've seen transformative shifts in perspective unfold.In this episode, my guest Cythera Wilkerson (another acupuncturist and dreamworker! yes!) talks about, for example, dreaming of Trump, and discovering the connection between feelings toward him, and feelings from childhood. This type of realization is one of the things I value most about dreamwork, on the personal and the collective level: when we are more aware, more clear, and less clouded by reactivity or trauma, we're available to take more wise, heart-ful action in the world. I highlight that moment in this conversation because, in the very near future, I'm expanding this podcast to include much more than dreamwork. Along with dreamworkers, I'll be including guests doing all kinds of work that contribute to The Great Turning of human society toward a life-sustaining way of being on the planet. I share a little more about that in the intro to this episode, and there's much more to come. Click Play to hear about it, and to hear me and Cythera explore:Being simultaneously drawn to and resistant to dreams, which are a place of “darkness,” where we haven't yet shone lightA powerful dream of Cythera's, about smoke and an obstacle in the road, in connection with a transformational process she was in around addictionHow she turns the energy wrapped up in suffering (or anger or sadness about suffering) toward energy for healingDropping into what Classical Chinese Medicine calls the “yuan level” by speaking about dreams (I know her descriptions of the body levels will strike a chord for someone!)Healing by letting our bodies respond to dream imagesUndesirable characters and bathroom dreamsHow she's seeing yin and yang and the Five Elements in dreamsand how when we find what we need ourselves, we can offer that as medicine.Cythera Wilkerson is an acupuncturist and bodyworker who incorporates the world of dreams and the exploration of the personal myth into treatments. She has a Masters in Oriental Medicine and has been active in a dreamwork training through the Haden Institute that opened up a whole new world of healing. She practices in her beloved Appalachian mountains at Medicine of the Heart. Cythera honors the work of the divine feminine, which is subtle, body-focused, and slow. She feels that in our fast-paced society it is a space that we and our earth are desperately asking for us to honor.It's so fulfilling to connect with Cythera and her beautiful work, and I hope you'll be filled by this conversation too.

We all want to keep our kids safe.

Our daughter experienced an extended season of using.

Even if you are not struggling with sex addiction, this podcast can help you know how to run free from feelings of guilt and shame.Today’s Speaker – Nate LarkinNate Larkin knows the pressure to live up to a public persona. He knows what it's like to have a secret that can destroy a career. He knows what it's like to quit. And He knows what it's like to find healing, deep friendships, and hope. Nate has a story that unfortunately too many people can relate with. He was the perfect role model growing up. Everything looked great on the outside. But inside Nate, a battle was raging. He married Allie on his graduation day and soon enrolled in Princeton Theological Seminary. He graduated from Princeton with a major in Preaching and was awarded the Preaching Prize. Within two years, Nate was the senior pastor for a new non-denominational church in South Florida. Observers saw a wise and godly man of God, dedicated to church and home. But Nate’s religious persona was crumbling from the inside out. After just five years in the ministry, Nate made the choice to quit. An obsession had developed into a virulent addiction to pornography and commercial sex. His decision to abandon vocational ministry was driven primarily by private despair about his moral failures and the fear of public exposure.Eventually, Nate and Allie moved to Franklin, TN. After years of praying, fasting, pleading, and repenting in private, Nate finally found help for his sex addiction—in the form of authentic friendship and the safety of a 12-step recovery group. As he worked through the 12 steps, Nate began to see life differently. Nate finally understood why a 12-step group had accomplished what solitary prayer and fasting could not. God designed the Christian life as a team sport! As he began to live in this new model of Christianity, Nate’s circle of friends expanded to include a large group of men with different weaknesses, addicts and potential addicts of every description, united by a common faith and a need for real companionship.So in 2004, several of these friends formed a mutual aid society for Christian men called the Samson Society. Within the safety of the Samson Society, honest friendships have taken root and men are finding new power in their faith. Nate, who drafted the Society’s charter and designed its first meeting format, has written a book about his experiences entitled Samson and the Pirate Monks: Calling Men to Authentic Brotherhood, which was published by Thomas Nelson in February 2007. (He is also the author, with Darrell Waltrip, of Sundays Will Never Be the Same).As of 2012, more than 250 local Samson Society groups are functioning in the United States, and others have started in other countries. A social networking website has been established to connect men who do not have access to a local meeting. Nate loves talking to men about their need for community and how they can overcome struggles together.

Do you need help dealing with addiction either for yourself or a loved one? If your loved one loved you back, would he or she be able to stop the hurtful behavior? Today’s guest, David Mathews, explains the definition of addiction and talks about several ways addiction affects the brain, explaining how “natural dopamine production in the body is like whispering in your ear. When you have artificial drugs coming in, it’s like someone shouting with a megaphone in your ear.”David Mathews goes into detail about how some personalities are more susceptible to addiction, how an addict’s brain gets reprogrammed, and what to do when supporting a loved one who suffers from addiction. Mathew’s greatest advice is “There’s always, always, always hope. Until there is no hope”.

Maia Szalavitz is an American reporter and author who has focused much of her work on the topic of addiction. In this paradigm-shifting interview, she explains what she means by claiming that addiction is a learning disorder, a developmental disorder. It's a different way of thinking of addiction than it being a disease or a moral failing. As a result, it has different implications for how it should then be treated.

On today's episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, Duane speaks with Gill Tietz, a biochemist and the host of the Sober Powered Podcast. Gill shares her alcohol addiction journey, the connection between our brain chemistry and addiction, and how she used her knowledge of science to achieve sobriety, change her way of thinking, and ultimately change her life.Gill had her first drink at 18 years old and, after feeling shame and guilt, she decided not to drink anymore after that. Four years later, when she was at grad school, she started drinking with her colleagues. Having dealt with bullying and trauma early in life, Gill just wanted to fit in. Once she had just one drink, she thought it was magic and the best feeling in the world. Best of all, she finally felt included. Within a year, she became a daily drinker. Drinking was a huge part of the culture of the lab she worked at so she thought it was normal behavior. By the second year, she was drinking a lot more with 80% or more alcohol in her drinks. She was blacking out several nights a week and going to work massively hungover. Towards the end, she started having several mental health issues, hating herself, and becoming very suicidal. Finally, Gill braved through her alcohol issue by accepting reality and looking at her drinking for what it was versus what she was hoping it could be someday. By removing emotions from the equation, she started to look at things from a more scientific perspective. Having removed feelings of shame and guilt, she opened herself up to self-compassion. In this episode, you will hear:What it's like to be in a work culture where drinking is normal How drinking impacts mental healthThe science behind addictionHow understanding the science behind it opened Gill up to self-compassionHow sobriety is achieved by looking at facts and removing emotionsHow brain chemistry is related to addictionThe study looking at endorphin levels for social drinkers and people with alcohol issuesThe misconception about dopamineThe concept of neuroplasticityKey Quotes:[10:08] - "I really didn't think my behavior was weird. I was just doing what you're supposed to do."[19:42] - “In science, you're trained to be very objective. Your thoughts and beliefs about something don't make it true.”[20:07] - “The big reason I was able to stop – I finally accepted reality and looked at my drinking for what it actually was."[22:56] - “When you can disconnect yourself from that, and just look at the actual facts of what's going on, it's helpful to make a good decision."[24:47] - “It's a bunch of different risks that add and subtract from each other. And if they add up enough, your risk of having a problem is very, very high. And then bam, you have a problem."[29:15] - “As you abuse alcohol, it makes changes to your reward system and other areas of your brain. [29:27] - “Not everyone's brain reacts exactly the same to alcohol.”[32:26] - “Endorphins actually trigger the release of dopamine."Subscribe and ReviewHave you subscribed to our podcast?

On today's episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, Duane speaks with Dr. Joseph Volpicelli, a world-renowned scientist clinician whose research led to the discovery of naltrexone (a drug that treats alcohol addiction) among many other discoveries related to addiction treatment. Today, he talks about how naltrexone can help someone struggling with alcohol addiction reduce their cravings. With the help of naltrexone as one of the tools in their toolkit of recovery, people can now start to build a meaningful, purposeful life. They also talk about the importance of the other component: not just the medical intervention, but also the psychosocial interventions for recovery.Dr. Volpicelli has been interested in addiction treatment and research for 40 years now. Such interest started when he was a medical student working with individuals who were returning from Vietnam who had developed an alcohol addiction. Many of them were using opiates but when they came back to the United States, they started drinking more alcohol. For a long time, he has been interested in the relationship between stress, alcohol drinking, and opiates, and has taken that observation into the laboratory working with rats. What he found out was that the ability to control trauma had a very profound effect in terms of one's ability to fight something like cancer. When you're exposed to uncontrollable trauma, your brain releases endogenous endorphins and endogenous morphine-like molecules that help kill the pain. The problem with addiction is that the behavior makes you feel better temporarily but it sows the seeds for the next episode when you'll need to use alcohol or drugs again, thereby creating an addictive cycle.Dr. Volpicelli discovered how naltrexone helps moderate the highs and lows and, therefore, helps break that addictive cycle. This then gives a person a chance to find other things in life and gives them a sense of purpose and social connectedness.In this episode, you will hear:How Dr. Volpicelli got interested in addiction treatmentTrauma and its effects on physical or behavioral disordersHow stress is related to alcohol addictionWithdrawal from your own endogenous opiatesThe endorphin effect that happens in addictionHow naltrexone breaks the addictive cycleUnderstanding the logical brain vs. the emotional brainThe BRENDA Approach to enhance adherenceKey Quotes:[04:06] - “The ability to control the trauma had a very profound effect in terms of one's ability to fight something like cancer.”[08:05] - “When you're exposed to uncontrollable trauma, your brain releases endogenous endorphins and endogenous morphine-like molecules that help kill the pain.”[09:24] - “A lot of times when people have a very stressful week, on the weekends, they just feel like sitting on a couch eating potato chips, and for some folks when they drink, it helps improve their mood… that's probably withdrawal from your own endogenous opiates.”[10:53] - "The problem with addiction is that the behavior, drinking alcohol or any other behavior, makes you feel better temporarily. But it sows the seeds for the next episode where you need to use the drug again. And so it creates an addictive cycle."[13:58] - “The naltrexone helps moderate the highs and lows so it helps break that addictive cycle.”[15:33] - “By breaking that cycle, the medicine then gives a person a chance to find other things in life to give them a sense of purpose and social connectedness.”[23:24] - "Rather than fight our emotional brain, it's important to understand how it works."[25:55] - "We like to do something purposeful and meaningful in our lives. And people who establish that have much less risk of going back to relapse."Subscribe and ReviewHave you subscribed to our podcast? We'd love for you to subscribe if you haven't yet.
