Wellness Musketeers

Embark on a transformative journey with Marcia Bremenour, a highly experienced therapist in addiction care, who shares her profound insights into America's drug addiction crisis and the courageous path to recovery. This episode offers an honest look at the societal tremors caused by substance abuse, evolving trends in addiction.
With Marcia, we untangle the intricate web of addiction treatment, from the temptation of short-lived coping strategies to the cultivation of lasting self-care practices that kindle genuine well-being. We peel back the layers of complexity surrounding various treatment options, dissecting everything from support meetings to inpatient programs, and zero in on the necessity of medical detox, particularly for alcohol addiction. Our exchange equips you with practical advice for seeking treatment, providing a guiding light for anyone embarking on the road to sobriety, with or without insurance.
We confront the harrowing introduction of potent substances like fentanyl into the recovery equation and the reality of relapse as an integral part of the healing process. Marcia advocates for a holistic recovery approach, encouraging self-compassion and employing tools like EMDR, yoga, meditation and mindfulness to aid in self-regulation. We close on an uplifting note, sharing triumphant recovery stories that affirm each step toward healing is a profound leap towards the restoration of hope and life. Join us for this candid and hopeful perspective on overcoming addiction.
