    #22: Move Through Trauma with Hope

    Trauma. When you love an addict or an alcoholic, you can experience many, many circumstances, which really can be quite traumatic. Whether it's a big trauma or a series of small traumas, which can take place over years, it has an impact on us mentally, emotionally, and physically.  Trauma can get stuck in your body and to really recover, we need to unwind and release all of that trauma. So how do we do this? Christine is going tell us how.  If there is one word that I would use to describe Christine, there's actually so many I could use, but the one that's at the top of the list is resilient.  Christine is an author.  She has written the book called Blinded by an Angel, which is her story. Christine has been a keynote speaker at mental health conferences, hospitals, addiction facilities, yoga studios, and universities, where she's openly has shared her story of resilience. Her story reached thousands of people in 2018. When she was featured in Canadian living magazine. She's also been a mentor to many in the field of addiction and recovery. She specializes in trauma informed yoga and is also the coauthor of clinical research gathered on residential treatment programs.  If you have been traumatised or have held trauma in your body for a very long time, you haven't connected physically with your body. And so there's some neglect there. And the reason you probably haven't is because you don't want to feel. You have to feel the heal.   Listen to the full episode to find out how.

    #21: Forgiveness

    Just let the whole thing go. To release the past. We must be willing to forgive, but it's easier said than done. Welcome to season two of Smiling Again, where we'll be exploring the 12 areas of self care. And today it's all about forgiveness.  I will be speaking with Chad Mierau, who is the author of a novel called Surviving the crash. I have to say that I believe this is going to be a challenging conversation for many reasons, and all the more reason for us to have this talk because of the positive impact that it can have on so many.  Just over six years ago, Chad lost his sister, her husband, and their two children in a car accident. They were hit by a drunk driver and in Chad's book called surviving the crash. He shares his story of forgiveness and personal personal journey of growth through that, through that experience.
