Inspiring Minds: Live Conversations Offering Wisdom for Our Time
Over 36 million people globally are estimated to suffer from drug use disorders, with pandemic-related mental health issues only fueling rates of substance abuse. Mindfulness and embodied practices are increasingly being employed as part of an integrative approach to addiction and recovery. Join us in a conversation with a leading scientist and a yoga of recovery teacher as they explore the coming together of east and west in pursuit of a more holistic approach to healing. Together, we discuss:
- The processes of deep inner work that can contribute to lasting change
- The evidence-base that’s emerging and how to expand access to mindfulness-based approaches to recovery.
