SHOW NOTES Guido Van Ryssegem is a badass. If you haven’t heard of him before, you may have heard of some of his contributions to the healthcare-fitness world. Just to name a few, Nick Winkelman studied under him and has become wildly popular. The sleeper stretch for throwers was a Guido invention. I was fortunate to attend Guido Attractor State and Dynamic Systems Theory Workshop and I can say with confidence that it changed the way I treat certain cases dramatically. The easiest way to think of Guido’s work in reducing Attractor States, is figuring out what the body is “asking for” and then giving it proper dosage of the proper “exercise medication.” Or maybe simplest way is to just hear the conversation :) Using the tactics Guido shares, I’ve been able to reduce many of my patient’s symptoms with a single corrective exercise within a matter of seconds. Neck pain, back pain, knee pain, hip impingement and so much more are treatable with the CORRECT corrective exercises. If you want to see a patient buy into your style quickly, consider attended Guido’s course. Simply amazing stuff.

We have been doing podcasts for six years now. March 2011 was my first show. Its been a long road to finishing the film The 13th Step and getting distribution. After years of focusing on Exposing AA, its dangers and its alternatives, it dawned on me in London this year there were filmmakers I wanted to interview, artists I have wanted to promote. So now we will expand and talk about other topics to carry through my own interests and hopefully yours. I was a singer long before I became a filmmaker , activist. I love social change. I love film, TV and Music. I love the idea of changing the world around alcohol and drug overuse issues. I love talking to authors. Not just writers who have written about addiction and its cures. So join me as I continue with the Safe Recovery theme ...and expand my horizons and interests. I have grown to know and love and like so many of you. Join me for my new adventure of this after life after LEAVING AA... Next Chapter...The REAL WORLD, Thank you. Warmest, Monica Richardson

Help us with crowd funding for this ground breaking feature length Documentary campaign for the completion of this film "The 13th Step the film". For two years Monica Richardson has worked on filming many interviews and interviewing over 70 poeple on her Safe Recovery, blog talk radio show. After suriving a serious health issuse last summer, Monica returned, more passionate then ever, to work on the film this past February after recovering for 6 months. We are happy to say, Monica is doing just great! This show will be for listeners and supporters to call in, ask questions about the film, it's current status, why the crowdfunding campaign, what is this money for, how much further do we have to go and when will the film be released. Over 1.3 million people get a DUI each year. Most are people are coerced illegally to AA meetings. Many who get addicted to pain medication are not "addicts" of the 12 set variety, yet when they go to a rehab thinking they will help from Doctors, nurses and therapists to detox , they find themsleves too often in the hands of crazy steppers, telling them they are broken and that they have a "spiritual disease" 'malady" How much more crazy does it have to get. How many more people will have to die in rehab for this crap to stop... for rehabs to be shut down if they are such dismal failures. We can make a difference. We can expose, educate and force AA, NA and the judical system to change!

Whatever the reason. We understand. You are not alone. You are not powerless over a behavior like AA/NA and many TV shows would like you to think. Movies like SMASHED and FLIGHT are once again spreading the lie that AA / NA or any 12 step support group is the only way. It is not. This is a short informational show I have put together so that you can find help without going to rehab, costing $1,000.00 a day or attending AA meetings for life, where it might be very likely you could be siting next to a 3rd level sex offender or a violent criminal or just a very bad oldtimer AA guru... SMART RECOVERY, SOS, LIFERING, Women for Sobriety and Moderation Management are some other free choices.

WHat's REAL? Which is it? Religion. Faith Healing. Addiction Program forced on you by the COURTS of the United States of America. Is this the 1600's? What is meant by a spiritual program? Why do they get to tell you "HOW TO PRAY" and who you can pray for" Who is really in charge of AA. If no one is why are AA sponsors bossing you around? If no one is responsible or in charge why are they paying themsleves 400k a year to run the big fancy office in NYC on Riverside Drive? How do priests really feel about AA? The 9th Circut Court of Appeal has deemed AA too religious in many states including California. So why does someone get sent 50 AA meetings by a Judge in 2012? Is he breaking the law? Is he responsable and liable if she gets raped by an AA guy? How bout shot in the head? FYI This Has already happened this year... Join me Next Tuesday for another episode of Safe Recovery.
