In this episode of In the Circle, I have the honor of talking with Author and master yoga teacher, Guruprem. Guruprem has been a major influence on my life and recovery journey. It was he who passed on the teachings that helped me heal my back and laid the foundation for Recovery 2.0.Today, he shares grounded wisdom on how to bring more ease back into your life. He touches on being of service, the role of meditation, and the practice of “acting as if”—and challenges some deeply held beliefs many of us don't even realize we have.Tommy Discusses:The power of breathwork and yogaOpening our hearts and minds to unconventional healingUnderstanding addiction and the mind-body connectionThe primary element in recovery Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

In this episode of In the Circle, I answer one of the most important and relevant inquiries I have ever received. Michelle asks, "How Can I Handle the Pain of Weaning Off Prescribed Medication?"She shares the emotional tug-of-war between love and shame, wanting to reduce her dose of buprenorphine, but feeling defeated when pain flares up and she takes more than planned. Her honesty opens up a deeply relevant conversation about what it means to meet ourselves with compassion in the hardest moments.I've seen again and again, in my own recovery and others, that the real struggle isn't just physical. It's the inner conflict: the part that wants comfort now, and the part that longs for freedom.So many people carry guilt when they “slip” during tapering. But I believe it's not about failure. It's about learning to listen. And with the right tools, the right support, and a shift in how we relate to pain, I truly believe we can change, not just our dose, but our entire experience of healing.If you're in the middle of this journey or supporting someone who is, I hope this conversation reminds you that you're not broken, and you're not alone. We're not here to rush or shame the process. We're here to explore what's possible, together.Tommy Discusses:Withdrawal is a mental, emotional, and physical battleShame is not all it seems to beSupport and strategy are essentialThere is NO shame in needing medication, but it's okay to wonder what's possible without itProgression is not perfectWould you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

In this episode of In the Circle, I am extremely privileged to speak with Father Richard Rohr.Richard Rohr is a Franciscan friar, author, and spiritual teacher renowned for his work in Christian mysticism and contemplative spirituality. Born in 1943 in Kansas, he was ordained a Catholic priest in 1970 and later founded the Center for Action and Contemplation (CAC) in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Through the CAC and the Living School for Action and Contemplation, Rohr has helped thousands explore a deeper, more experiential faith.Rohr's teachings emphasize the union of action and contemplation, encouraging spiritual growth through lived experience rather than rigid doctrine. His message includes ideas like the “true self,” the “universal Christ,” and the transformative power of embracing paradox, suffering, and mystery. He is known for offering an “alternative orthodoxy” that bridges traditional Christian thought with modern spiritual needs.He has authored numerous influential books, including Falling Upward, The Universal Christ, and The Divine Dance. Though recent health challenges have led him to step back from public speaking, Rohr continues to write and guide through his work at the CAC, remaining a vital voice in contemporary spirituality.Tommy Discusses:The role of practiceReligion, spirituality, and science The true recovery goalHealthy vs unhealthy religion Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

He delves into the causes of resentment and shame and how to move beyond these challenges.Tommy Discusses:How to let go of resentment and shameFinding light in the darkest placesThe effect of yoga in recoveryWhat is addiction?Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

In this episode of In the Circle, we take a look at an inquiry I get asked the most: How Do I Get Sober? What does sobriety truly entail?By asking this question, we are looking for a way to evolve into a better version of ourselves– to let go of the old and embrace the new. In order to move towards a life filled with more love, connection, and fulfillment, we need to be honest, vulnerable, and open to change.We need to remember that momentum comes slowly and develop a one-day-at-a-time concept of life. All we have to do is stay sober today. If you're reading this, the time has come for you to make the change that you know you must make.Tommy Discusses:The step-by-step process to getting soberWhy there is strength in vulnerability Why you should never hesitate to phone a friend!The one-day-at-a-time approach to addiction recoveryThe power of a daily recovery routine Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, I delve into the complex and often debated topic: Is addiction a disease? We explore how society interprets addiction and the implications these interpretations have on treatment approaches. What are the motivations behind defining addiction as a disease? If addiction isn't seen as a disease, how do we understand and “fix” it?We also take a look at the characterization of addiction as a disease of the brain and nervous system, focusing on remission rather than cure. This has led to an increased reliance on pharmacological treatments in addiction recovery. While these are important tools and can be effective for short-term withdrawal relief, their prolonged use might lead to additional dependencies and impede full emotional and mental recovery. The holistic approach to recovery is still, in my opinion, the best and most effective long-term recovery plan—by taking abstinence-based approaches and following the transformative power of 12-step programs, yoga, meditation, and breathwork. Tommy Discusses:Whether or not addiction is a diseaseThe effects of prolonged use of addiction medicationsAre we treating the symptom or the root of addiction?Why does humankind fall for addictive substances?Why the holistic approach to addiction recovery is the most effective Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we're revisiting an extremely relevant inquiry: Are the 12 Steps still relevant today, how do they fit into modern recovery, and why did I adapt the 12 Steps into the 12 Efforts?Of course, when we explore these questions, we will need to discuss the challenges that come up with language and the power of words. Do people in recovery always have to refer to themselves as addicts or should that identification change?In a way, this exploration is fundamental to all who are on the path of recovery. We need to know what works, why it works, and how it can work better. We must always strive to honor the past, but we must also innovate and improve upon what is there to create an even brighter future. Tommy Discusses:How language gets in the way of our growthThe ties between yoga and the 12 StepsHow to embrace your past and overcome resentmentsWhy he created the 12 Efforts Readying yourself to be of service to other peopleWhy he is proud to be a part of “The Island of Misfit Toys”Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we're revisiting what I believe to be one of the most important aspects of recovery: Yoga. In this episode, we have the pleasure of discussing the role of yoga in recovery and how we can overcome people's innate resistance to the practice. Chris asks… If freedom from addiction is possible, and yoga is the medicine, how then do we make this medicine more accessible?This is such an important episode, as there is no one left on the planet unaffected by addiction. You either experience it yourself or someone you love is going through it. And if you want to take your recovery all the way, yoga is going to be a part of it. Let's come to understand both yoga and recovery from a much broader perspective and see what's waiting for the person in recovery who embraces both paths.Tommy Discusses:Chris asks about the preconceived notions around yogaDefining yoga as calming the mindBreaking barriers of culture, region, and languageCan a devout Christian practice yoga in alignment with their beliefs?Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we're looking back on a topic that sits deep in the minds of most people who are in recovery–What If The 12 Steps Aren't For Me? Jeanne, a member of our Recovery 2.0 community shares about how the 12 steps will always be the foundation of her recovery, but that after a while she felt called to explore alternative paths of healing. What starts as a question about adopting modern-day healing modalities into 12-step recovery turns into a powerful look at what is broken about our approach to recovery in America and what we can do about it. There are so many options when it comes to recovery, and it is certainly my prayer that people will explore all the avenues that lead to health and wellness. IWe want to thank Jeanne today for asking this question and bringing so much to the table that we can explore. We must take stock of why we do what we do, especially when it comes to our decisions about healthcare and the well-being of all people.Tommy Discusses:Considering the 12-step doctrineWays modern treatment approaches fall shortIs the world ready for new modalities of healing?Poorly designed institutions and agencies Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we're visiting one of my most impactful episodes - Episode 8. In this episode, Elizabeth brings a thought-provoking question to The Circle: Can I Prevent A Relapse Before It Starts?Today's thoughtful inquiry comes as Elizabeth offers the deeply meaningful subject of relapse for closer inspection. In doing so, we reframe the meaning of the word, removing all shame from its existence, and call in the support of others on the path.Where it's easy to point blame at a person, a circumstance, even one defining moment – we learn to take a step back, in silence, to assess the many other variables that led to such a moment. In taking responsibility for how we can get there, it becomes easier to avoid repeating the same actions.Tommy Discusses:Relapse is not a necessity, even though it's very commonOptionality of relapse outcomes Identifying and traveling to different levels of consciousnessHow can we avoid relapse?Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we're taking it back to where it all began - Episode 1. In this episode, Theresa asked us such a very important question: is it possible for a person in recovery to truly reach a place of peace and contentment?This incredibly powerful question, it seems to me, is really about the entire human race. Is it possible for any person, whether in recovery or not, to truly find peace and contentment?When we look at this inquiry through the lens of addiction and recovery, we learn so much about ourselves. Our minds are responsible for some of the problems that we encounter, but our minds also create the solutions.Thoughts lead to impressions, impressions lead to habits, and our habits determine how we act in this world. It's only by taking action to change these habits that we can move forward into a greater state of awareness and presence.Tommy Discusses:Journey before destination Solutions for anxiety through forming healthier habitsShifting your focus from the symptom of a problem towards its solutionThe burden of shame Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, I'm sharing one of the most powerful conversations I've ever had with Herb K. Thanks to the 12 Steps, Herb has been free from alcohol since 1984. In 1988, he had a profound spiritual awakening. Since then, he's dedicated himself to helping others sustain and expand their own awakening through recovery.Herb's work goes beyond addiction—it's about clarity, consciousness, and living your best life. We all struggle with something, whether it's substances, relationships, food, technology, or money. I truly believe everyone would benefit from going through the 12-Step process at least once. It's not a cure-all, but it lays the foundation for contentment, fulfillment, and freedom.Before we dive in, I want to acknowledge the universal relevance of this discussion. No matter where you are on your journey, there's something here for you.Tommy Discusses:The three stages of the 12 StepsIs addiction a lack of choice?The misconceptions about the 12 StepsThe role of community in addiction recovery Would you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

This week's episode of In The Circle is unlike any other because, for the first time, I'm sharing my personal story of recovery. It's a journey filled with struggle, revelation, and transformation—one that has shaped every part of who I am today. Recovery is never a straight line, and looking back, I see how each moment, each fall, and each breakthrough led me here.My path began long before I took my first drink or drug. Addiction, I believe, is rooted in childhood, in the ways we learn to cope, seek approval, or escape discomfort. And when addiction took hold, it pulled me into a cycle that felt impossible to break.I hit rock bottom not once, but three times—two of them while in recovery. Sobriety wasn't a simple fix; it was the beginning of an even deeper struggle. The 12 steps became both a guide and a mirror, forcing me to confront parts of myself I wanted to avoid. But it was in these moments—facing my pain head-on—that true healing began.And then, I found something that changed everything. Yoga and the wisdom of my teacher, Guru Prem, opened a door to a new way of being. Recovery became more than just staying sober; it became a path to real freedom. Today, I share this journey in the hopes that it sparks something in you—because we all have our own paths to walk, and healing is always possible.

In this week's episode of In The Circle, I'm joined by Miriam who poses a deeply relevant inquiry: How Can I Stay Grounded When The World Feels So Uncertain?How do I navigate interactions with others amidst heightened emotions and uncertainty in the world? In a time when truth feels elusive and perspectives shift depending on the source, the power of discernment has never been more crucial. In times of upheaval, we must hold space for both grief and gratitude, recognizing that being present with what is allows us to respond rather than react.As we face societal shifts, including political change, it's essential to remain anchored in the present. Beyond affiliations and opinions, our true alignment is with the here and now—a practice that calls for awareness, balance, and intentional action.

In this week's episode of In The Circle, we're joined by John, who poses one of humanity's most timeless questions: What is happiness? In recovery, we often hear about being “happy, joyous, and free,” the ultimate state achieved through the transformative work of recovery.

In this week's episode of In The Circle, I'm thrilled to dive into an incredibly meaningful topic that impacts each of us — our relationship with food. Alyssa joins us with an inquiry about something fundamental to the human experience - How Can I Move Beyond Addictive Patterns with Food? Food has a powerful impact on how we feel, think, and interact in the world. It affects our energy, our mood, and even the way we show up in relationships. For those of us on the recovery path, it can be difficult to fully surrender to the principle that every compulsive bite blocks our connection to spirit.

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we welcome Stuart, who is celebrating one year of sobriety from long-term cannabis use. Stuart's success stands as a beacon of hope for those struggling to let go of cannabis, showing that recovery and thriving are possible. In this episode, he asks a question many of us can relate to: how can I break free from negative thinking patterns? How can we shift from negative thinking to a more realistic and positive outlook? The recovery journey can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it is not uncommon to occasionally feel stuck in old thinking and behavior patterns. By cultivating self-awareness and challenging those limiting beliefs, we can gradually move from a mindset of negativity to one that embraces possibility. It takes effort and intention, but every step forward opens the door to new perspectives and greater mental clarity. There's always a way to break free from the cycle of negativity, and with the right tools and support, you can reshape your mindset toward a more empowering and realistic outlook.Tommy Discusses:How to let go of your negative thoughtsWhy self-awareness can feel overwhelming in early recoveryShifting your thought process in real-timeWhy missteps along the way are actually opportunitiesWould you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we are joined by Rosie, who brings a relevant and powerful inquiry for our consideration: How can I quickly regulate my emotions and ground myself, so I don't get lost in the story my mind creates?This is a deeply relevant inquiry—who hasn't found themselves trapped by the narratives they carry in their mind? It's all too common to become our own biggest triggers, getting swept away by our thoughts and emotions.Recovery, however, is more than abstinence. It's about moving beyond the limiting stories that keep us stuck and discovering new ways of thinking that empower us. It's the process of letting go of old, unhelpful stories and embracing ones that enhance our connection to truth, power, love, and life itself.By rewriting our stories, we can open the door to deeper healing and a more authentic, fulfilling existence.Tommy Discusses:How to disrupt negative emotionsHow to reframe the narratives that keep you stuckYour thoughts hold no power over youHow the mind and breath are connectedYou are not your thoughts and emotionsWould you like to be a guest on the In The Circle Podcast?

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?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we have Kathy bringing a very unique yet relevant inquiry that requires a bit of unpacking. Kathy inquires: what is the difference between being an introvert and isolating? Kathy wrote to us and said, “I usually hear that human beings are hardwired for connection and that we are social creatures. I do not believe it to be true for every human being - it isn't true for me.” As we go down the path of this inquiry, we'll learn that Kathy has been introverted most of her life and that her family was not necessarily comfortable with that. We explore what it means to find solitude, the importance of cultivating a relationship with oneself, and how that relationship compares in importance and in necessity with the relationships with those around us.This inquiry brings up a lot of questions about the difference between being an introvert and self-isolation.

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we are joined by Donna, who asks such a brave, honest, and raw question: Is It Possible To Fully Heal From Sexual Trauma?Can the trauma of childhood sexual abuse be overcome? The unfortunate reality is that sexual and physical abuse are very present in our world. Donna's inquiry gives us an opportunity to explore healing from these deep, formative wounds.I believe that healing is always possible. It requires a combination of ingredients, a certain alchemy, and a willingness to sow the seeds of forgiveness and compassion for oneself and others. Frankly, it is incredibly difficult, but absolutely attainable, especially for someone who asks a question such as this.Tommy discussesLetting go of trauma and abuseAre unconscious beliefs holding you back from healing?Does time heal all wounds?Can we change for the better?Embracing and accepting your woundsLooking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we are joined by Elizabeth, who brings an incredibly powerful inquiry: How Can I Remain Spiritual During Troubling Times?So many people I speak with are feeling lost, sad, depressed, or despairing in the face of the world's difficulties. Of course, it doesn't help that we are attached to devices that inform us endlessly of other people's challenges.This inquiry gives us a moment to explore the Serenity Prayer: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.” Through this, we can develop a strategy for managing the myriad of challenges that the people of the world are facing.Tommy discussesThe danger of the newsAccept the things you cannot changeWe are all spiritual beingsThere is more light than darkness in the worldLooking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, Galen brings to light the addictive nature of procrastination when he inquires: How Can I Overcome The Hidden Addiction Of Procrastination?When we actively avoid things we need to do and even things we may want to do, it erodes our confidence and compels us to take some action to relieve ourselves of the negative emotions that ensue. I look at procrastination as one of the four aggravations. Negative thinking, self-doubt, procrastination, and resentment. It is a pattern of belief and behavior that truly gets in the way of a person's happiness.This brings the concept of addiction to everyone's doorstep. For who among us has not experienced procrastination?This pattern needs to be worked on to live a great life.Tommy discussesHow to overcome procrastinationThe four aggravationsOne small step makes a massive impactWhy you don't need labelsEveryone's recovery journey looks differentLooking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, we are joined by Tracy, who inquires: Will my recovery journey positively impact my children? This is such a powerful inquiry that I know will have relevance for us all.Part of this exploration will lead us to understand that there is no such thing as a perfect parent. There is no such thing as parenting without doing some harm. We all have negative ingrained behaviors we see in ourselves that inevitably get passed to our children. Many of us struggle with the idea that we've done something unconsciously or consciously, which will affect the outcome of our children's life in some negative way.This is an inquiry about our healing journey as individuals and how we can relieve ourselves of guilt, process through shame, and come out to a much better place.

On this week's episode of In The Circle, Nicole is here with us bringing an inquiry about what I call the real gateway drug. Of course, I'm speaking about sugar. Nicole asks: Am I addicted to sugar? Should I abstain completely or is there a place of moderation?Now, I believe that addressing one's relationship with food and sugar in particular is a central part of recovery for everyone. In Nicole's case, she let go of alcohol several years ago and wants to take her recovery journey to the next level by addressing her relationship with food. I've seen countless people stuck in the frequency of addiction because they stay in old addictive patterns when it comes to food. This is one of the most important inquiries when it comes to true recovery as we need to be present in our minds and bodies to address the underlying reasons for our food cravings.

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?

On this week's episode of In The Circle, Brian asks an incredibly profound question: Can a person change their personality? He goes on to explain that the origin of his inquiry is due to his use of sarcasm and how he does not want to speak in that same tone with that same sharpness, especially to those he loves.As someone who grew up in New York City, I'm well-trained in sarcasm, and this inquiry hit home for me. This naturally leads us to a powerful discussion about the nature of personality and whether we can change our deeply ingrained patterns, or if we are set in our ways forever.Tommy discussesCan you change your personality?The power of your wordsHow to change your mind with morning practiceThe origins of sarcasm and upgrading your language Looking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?

This week, I am very excited to share a podcast that breaks tradition with our normal format. Normally, I answer questions from people in recovery all over the world. This episode features an interview I conducted with Zach Bush, MD., from the recent Life Beyond Addiction Conference. Zach is a renowned, multi-disciplinary physician of internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care, as well as an internationally recognized educator on the microbiome as it relates to human health, soil health, food systems, and a regenerative future. This interview was among the most watched during the Life Beyond Addiction Conference. Zach shares profound wisdom about the power of nature, the interconnectedness of all things, and the way beyond all addiction. There are no words to fully describe the depth of this conversation. You just have to listen for yourself as we cover a lot of territory. P.S.

In this episode of In the Circle, Today, we'll hear an inquiry from Carla, who asks an important question regarding friendship and letting go: How do I release the ties of a long-term friendship that has become codependent? How can I let go of relationships that no longer serve me?This inquiry takes us into this realm of relationships, reminding us that friendships, connections, business partnerships, and romantic relationships all have the potential to become codependent if we try to control or place someone else's needs inappropriately before our own.As we delve into this topic, we're looking at shifting from blame and complaint to a place of self-reflection and growth. It's important to remember, you always have a choice, letting go of a friendship that no longer serves our well-being can be an act of self-care and liberation for all involved parties. Tommy discussesThe difference between codependency and interdependencyWhat is true forgiveness?You have a choiceThe importance of trusting your gut Outgrowing people on the Path of Recovery Registration Now Open for the Life Beyond Addiction Program, LIVE with Tommy Rosen!

In this episode of In the Circle, we're joined by Sam, who brings our attention to an addiction that we don't often consider, the addiction to the struggle itself. Sam inquires: How Can I Break Away From Victimhood? Most of us can look back and, if we're self-conscious human beings, notice some patterns repeating themselves, holding us back. The most common being self-sabotage.This brings up a powerful psychological and spiritual discussion about how we can move out of victimhood. How can we overcome our resistance to the next level? What do we need to do to move into empowerment and personal mastery? Well, it just so happens that the ancient yogis had an answer to this. The sages had an answer to this, the seers, the seekers had an answer to this, and they wrote it down in some powerful scriptures, and we're going to learn from those lessons today about how to move from victimhood to mastery.Tommy discussesHow to move out of victimhood to masteryFalling in love with yourselfWhy we are our own worst enemiesThe Gift of Morning Practice (Sadhana)The true path of discovery in recoveryRegistration Now Open for the Life Beyond Addiction Program, LIVE with Tommy Rosen!

In this episode of In the Circle, we're joined by Dorcus, who brings us an incredibly vital inquiry: How Can I Navigate Relapse Without Fear Or Shame? This normal and stigmatized phenomenon is part of most individuals' recovery journeys.We explore the traditional 12-step method that requires starting over on day one post-relapse. While this method emphasizes the importance of recognizing milestones in recovery, it can also lead to feelings of shame and guilt, which may prevent people from re-engaging with the support they need.This conversation is crucial for anyone looking to navigate the ups and downs of recovery and to reach a higher consciousness or awakening through their journey.Tommy discussesAm I broken if I relapse?Why you need a community and support systemRecovery is an evolutionary pathThe protocol to follow after a relapseHow yoga and breathwork can help you on your path of discoveryLooking for a way to deepen your recovery journey and meet others in the Recovery 2.0 community?
