Some people struggling with opioid addiction are turning to a powerful psychedelic called ibogaine. The drug is derived from the bark of an African rainforest shrub, and its proponents believe it sends people on a transformative journey that can free them from addiction. In countries like Mexico, ibogaine use is unregulated, so resort-like clinics are offering what they consider treatment for addiction, by sending people on powerful psychedelic trips. In her documentary "Ibogaine: The Last Trip?", senior CBC reporter Karen Pauls introduces us to Rocky Dhillon. He's one of a growing number of Canadians who are seeking out this treatment in Mexico. We'll also meet a Winnipeg businessman who is trying to get Health Canada approval for clinical trials of ibogaine, with the goal of offering it as a treatment for addiction in Canada. Some say the drug has changed their lives but there have also been tragic consequences, like the Canadian man who died on an ibogaine trip in South Africa. Produced by Karen Pauls and Joan Webber / originally aired on The Current. Storylines is part of the CBC Audio Doc Unit

Aaron Zint of The Whole Man Project and author of Numb to Known: The Surprising Path Away From Porn joins Liz for a vitally important conversation on freedom from sexual addiction. Aaron vulnerably shares his powerful story of getting free from porn-use and he unpacks the internal world of men who have this struggle. Aaron gives insight into what is really going on and that sexual addiction is really a ‘check engine light' for deep underlying areas that need attention. Compassion heals and shame does not. Shame is a tactic from the enemy that tells us to isolate and that we will be rejected if we bring our whole selves into the light. Jesus always healed with compassion, it is the love and acceptance of God and others that bring freedom! If you're struggling, get connected to trustworthy people and be vulnerable, and see that you are accepted and loved no matter what. Related Materials:Numb to Known breaks down the mystery behind compulsive porn-use whether it's a daily struggle or just happens a couple times a year. Help with porn is available and attainable. The problems behind porn are broken down in a relatable and understandable way, creating an addiction recovery path that doesn't just lead to stopping the behavior, but a life of wholeness. Get your hope up because there is a path to freedom! https://tinyurl.com/mujeed9z

This podcast is your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing and deliverance modality. In this episode, we have Heather Hughes back on the show as our special guest. She is the Executive Director of The Splankna Institute and founder of Alethia for Life. Heather is also the co-author of "Upper Dogs," a compelling book about spiritual authority in Christ.  Today we're learning about the addiction protocol in Splankna. How it was developed and how it has benefitted client who are struggling with addictive patterns. These patterns often arise from attempting to satisfy or fill an unmet need with something that isn't godly or fulfilling. Heather shares her insight and experience, shedding light on the holistic approach Splankna takes to address the root cause of addiction.  Addiction is often associated with the overconsumption of alcohol or drugs, but the harsh reality is that habits, traits, and even excuses can become addictive in themselves and can lead to more substance based addictions. Healing from addiction can feel hopeless to those who are suffering, and it can be equally harrowing for those in relationships with someone battling addiction.  As Splankna practitioners we emphasize the importance of seeking help from a practitioner who is well-versed in the Splankna addiction protocol. Additionally, she advises continuing to work with medical professionals to treat the addiction and its symptoms as needed. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, this episode offers hope and practical guidance.

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we have Bob here with us at 20 years sober. Bob is asking a profound question related to the 12 step path: How would you describe the process of becoming entirely ready?Now, for those who are not familiar with step six, it reads: we were entirely ready to have God remove these defects of character. This brings up a lot of questions and some confusion about what God is doing and how God does it exactly. We need to explore this and ask ourselves: what do we need to do to truly advance ourselves along a spiritual path?How can we awaken out of addiction and experience true freedom? What is the path? What does God have to do with it? What do we have to do with it?

In this message, Pastor Marco speaks on freedom from addiction. Addiction to any substance or activity has the potential to derail our lives. Only when we reach a point of brokenness and humility will we look to Christ for freedom and new life.

 We are excited to welcome our friend and ministry leader Randy Donithan to the podcast today!⚠️ Before you listen, we do want to give you a trigger warning for this episode. Pornography and sex addiction is discussed throughout this conversation. ⚠️ Randy was born and raised in Arizona growing up in the 50s and 60s. His family life was very difficult as his father was an alcoholic, and this caused many fights between his parents. As a child he felt he was in survival mode and didn't want anyone around to know what was going on in his home. At age 11 a friend showed him a stash of Playboy magazines. This unfortunately led to years and years of addiction. Randy describes it as being in a never-ending cycle of shame and low self-worth among other things. Growing up he had heard confusing messages about Jesus and though he called himself a Christian he didn't really know what that meant. As he grew up into his young adult life his pornography addiction only continued, and it affected how he viewed relationships and even caused struggles in pursuing higher education. At one point he thought a fresh start in California would solve his problems, but he soon found that the struggles followed him. We appreciated Randy being so open in walking us through this time of his life. At age 28 Randy found himself back in Arizona running his own flooring business. He reconnected with a friend who knew Christ and this relationship led Randy to a true understanding of who Jesus. He placed his faith in him for the first time and finally understood what love really is. There were still steps to be taken to work on healing his addiction, but he finally had hope for his life. Randy was soon introduced to a woman named Becky who would become his wife. Together they raised adopted special needs children together while also having children of their own.  Life had taken an amazing turn! Years later, Randy was once again faced with his addictions and struggles. Now being a husband and father, he knew he had to take purposeful steps towards healing. Listen in to hear about how support groups and Christian relationships helped him to heal and begin recovery. It eventually led Randy to leading Celebrate Recovery groups across the valley, including the group we offer here at DSCC. Don't miss this incredible story of God's healing!

Emmanuel Guarino is the Founder of Team Vulnerable. Their mission is to help other married couples overcome porn addiction and have a relationship and life filled with vulnerability and freedom. In this episode, Larry Hagner interviews Emmanuel Guarino who shares his personal story of struggling with a porn addiction. Emmanuel talks about his lack of sex education growing up and how he started watching porn at a young age. He reveals that his addiction escalated in college and caused problems in his relationship, including erectile dysfunction on his wedding night. Emmanuel Guarino describes the negative impact porn had on his life and how it took a toll on his mental health. He then shares a pivotal moment during COVID when he realized he needed help and reached out to God for guidance. His addiction escalated to the point where it interfered with his wedding night. Despite his intentions to quit watching porn before marrying Becca, he found himself unable to perform sexually due to porn-induced erectile dysfunction. This revelation was a devastating blow to both Emmanuel and Becca, as he had to explain that his inability was not a reflection of her desirability or attractiveness. It was a consequence of his addiction and the distorted mindset it had created. Emmanuel's story serves as a poignant example of how porn addiction can ruin relationships and lives. It highlights the detrimental effects it can have on intimacy, trust, and emotional well-being. Porn addiction not only distorts an individual's perception of sex and relationships but also leads to a breakdown in communication and emotional connection. It is essential to recognize the seriousness of porn addiction and the need for support and treatment. Emmanuel's story emphasizes the importance of open and honest conversations about sex education and the impact of pornography. Education should focus on healthy relationships, consent, and the potential consequences of excessive porn consumption. www.thedadedge.com/447 www.teamvulnerable.com/30dayprogram www.youtube.com/channel/UCctvkhL4du2VJIgIFnhY2uA www.instagram.com/teamvulnerable

In the last episode, we spoke about close relationships and what they mean in terms of our Evolutionary Path. We need to cease imposing our values or expectations on others. Instead, concentrate on altering who we are and how we react to situations. It is said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." Gandhi Without force, and only without force, can you be seen as you truly are. If something is not really given, you can never really have it, can you? You do not really have love, when you force it. You really just have disappointment. You do not really have success, when you force it. You really just have anxiety. You do not really have respect, when you force it. You really just have anger.Join Rachel and her guests Angela and Jessica as they continue their discussion.Support the show

Twelve Step programs have helped millions of people recover from addictions over the past 85+ years.
