Recovery is different from abstinence, though both are important as you heal from addiction. Abstinence is the avoiding of an addictive substance, while recovery is the balancing of your body from years of addiction.

For example, some people go from cocaine to coffee so the same activating patterns of addiction are playing out with a new substance.

This free session focuses on the somatic psychology behind addiction (a desperation for safety) as well as the biochemistry that causes us to become addicted. Whether it's food, legal or illegal drugs, television, media, work, porn, sex, or money we welcome anyone here who is in recovery, wants to be, or supports people in recovery to learn the important role that food plays in helping the body become balanced and less dependent on addictive substances and behaviors.

This session will be 60 minutes and is free to attend. Everyone who registers will receive a replay.

Masculinity is a force. It's not directly tied to being a man or a woman. In this webinar, I'm going to explore the common associations we have with masculinity and how, because of those associations, we can repress, shame, or amplify our masculine energy - all of which can create toxic outcomes.

I'll speak about how sex hormones, namely testosterone, amplifies masculinity and how it's important to learn how to embody its energy so it can be consciously used for boundary setting, protection, and other forms of externalizing power and expression. I don't believe masculinity is inherently toxic. This webinar intends to reclaim masculinity by highlighting its importance and how, when embodied and in balance, contributes greatly to our individual and collective experiences.

This is open to all sexes and genders looking to embody and tend to their masculine energy.
