LSD For Medical Use

A prescription for acid? LSD for medical use? We might be getting closer than you’d think. Ongoing research suggests LSD may be able to bring relief to people dealing with mental illnesses like depression and anxiety in conjunction with therapy and coaching. Though research had already begun before the counterculture movement in the 60s, it was stopped once “acid” became considered a threat to society. After decades of silence, the LSD research is coming back to life with a resurgence of interest in it as a medical treatment. The people studying psychedelics are optimistic about the implications of the new research. As more studies are done, the hope among many [...]

What Is Medical Psilocybin?

When you hear medical psilocybin, your first thought probably isn’t pharmaceutical. But soon we may very well see medical psilocybin among other mainstream medical treatment options. Emerging research is validating much of what had already been found, before the so-called war on drugs put a stop to psychedelic research for the following decades. The potential for psilocybin is great in treating prevalent mental health concerns. Issues like alcoholism, depression, and anxiety are widespread, so the possibility of a new treatment option is exciting to many who are interested in alternatives for mental health. So how could such a substance go from being considered dangerous to helpful? If you’re a bit [...]

Finding Happiness, Fulfillment, and Joy

Listen on Your Favorite app iTunes Spotify Stitcher When we get sober, start going to support groups, and begin to find ourselves again, it can be common to ask ourselves, “what am I doing this for?” We’re told that if we follow all the necessary steps, we’ll remain sober and find a life beyond our “wildest dreams.” However, for some, we make it to the other side and the grass is still brown. Instead of the pink cloud we so often hear about, a rain cloud follows us around and we become miserable.   How do we get ourselves here? How do we find happiness, fulfillment and joy?  In this [...]

How to Get Out of Your Own Way

Listen on Your Favorite app iTunes Spotify Stitcher Have you ever felt so desperate to move forward with your life but find yourself getting in your own way?

Some of us struggle with a nagging sense of inadequacy. Others feel pressure from feeling insignificant and feel powerless, and some may have a tendency to [...]

Reconnecting With Your Abandoned Self

Listen on Your Favorite app iTunes Spotify Stitcher Learning how to self-soothe is just as important for us as adults as it is as children. As a child, we learn how to self-soothe when we feel anxious, sad, disappointed, and insignificant. However, when we experience childhood trauma, the self-soothing we learn can become maladaptive.  In this week’s Recovery Coaching session the group helped, Sean. After a recent relapse, Sean admits his relapse behavior was sneaky and immature, close to a childlike state. As he begins to process the reason for his slip, he reflects on the dynamics of his family of origin and the childhood experiences he had. Feeling [...]

As mental illness continues to be a significant challenge for many people, some are turning to more unconventional treatment options.

How Self-Deprecation Can Serve Us

Listen on Your Favorite app iTunes Spotify Stitcher “If you knew me, you would hate me too.” How many of us have had similar self-deprecating thoughts? If we continually speak about ourselves in a manner that puts us down, over time, they become a part of how we view ourselves and severely impacts our self-esteem. Self-depreciation isn’t just telling ourselves we’re at fault. It’s also undermining our own authority, silencing ourselves in favor of others, and tormenting ourselves over mistakes that don’t matter. How Self-Deprecation Can Serve Us There’s a point when we find secondary gains from self-deprecation and they begin to serve us. Whether that be to keep [...]
