Many people believe that hypervigilance is a necessary part of addiction and recovery, or for a person supporting a loved one through their sobriety. This is not entirely wrong, but it isn’t fully true either. Hypervigilance is a response that can be retrained.
Susi is a BSc. Kinesiologist, C-IAYT teacher, trainer, speaker, and author, with decades of experience on how to integrate yoga and mindfulness for more ease and less pain.
When Susi met her now-husband, she watched as her stepson heavily struggled with his addiction. Through her yoga practice, Susi found tools to navigate the challenges that came with supporting a family member with addiction. Recovery 2.0 helped Susi better understand the mindset of addiction, which proved to be a transformative experience for her. It gave her the tools and perspective needed to assist her stepson on his own recovery journey.
