In this episode, we dive deep into the world of holistic well-being, focusing on the experiences of veterans and individuals conquering addiction. Join us as we explore questions like “What is holistic healing?” and “How can embracing a holistic approach enhance recovery?” We engage in a thought-provoking conversation with Mike, a former Air Force veteran, who shares his personal odyssey of battling addiction and emerging stronger. From the role of communities in recovery to the power of sensory healing practices like aromatherapy and sound therapy, we uncover the interconnected aspects of wellness, self-awareness, and transformative growth.
