??♀? Anchoring in the Breath with Mary Beth Stern ??? In moments of stress or distraction, we often forget the simplest tool we have: our breath. This gentle mindfulness practice by Mary Beth Stern, helps you return to the present by bringing your attention to the sensations of breathing. Whether you feel the breath in your belly, chest, or at the tip of your nose, allow yourself to simply notice the rhythm of your body breathing. When thoughts or feelings arise, remember to come back with kindness to the safe harbor of your breath. ???? Breathe in. Breathe out. Anchor yourself in the present moment. #MindshiftRecovery #addictionrecovery #onedayatatime #wedorecovery #recoveryispossible #recoverycommunity #MindfulnessPractice #BreathAwareness #AnchoringInTheBreath #SelfCompassion #WellnessJourney #NeuroscienceBasedRecovery #HealingThroughMindfulness

Breaking the Willpower Myth in Recovery ?? If you’ve ever felt broken, like you’ve tried everything and nothing works, this message is for you: There is nothing wrong with you. ?? Dr. Jud Brewer’s latest brain science shows us that willpower is more myth than muscle when it comes to recovery. Learning how your brain works can be the key to lasting change. Instead of relying on willpower, Mindshift teaches you how to leverage the strength of your brain—the same pathways that set up addiction in the first place—to help overcome it. ?? ??

?? Unlock the Power of Mindfulness for Addiction Recovery ?? Addiction is more prevalent than ever, with substances and experiences engineered to get us hooked. But what if we could use our brain's natural processes to gently change our habits? Dr. Judson Brewer’s research highlights how mindfulness can be a transformative approach. Instead of relying on sheer willpower, which often falters, mindfulness taps into our brain’s reward-based learning system. By becoming aware of our cravings and the actual satisfaction (or lack thereof) we get from addictive behaviors, we can reshape our habits. Imagine this: Next time you feel triggered, try pausing and paying attention to the experience. You might find that what you thought was rewarding is actually less satisfying than you believed. Over time, this awareness can gradually diminish the hold of addiction. Ready to give it a try? Join us in exploring the transformative power of mindfulness. ???
