Mind-Body Grounding in Addiction Recovery
Substance dependence alters the nervous system, leaving residents in a heightened state of stress and reactivity. Trauma-sensitive yoga and guided breathwork help lower cortisol and activate the parasympathetic nervous system.
Practicing mindfulness teaches residents to observe cravings and anxiety without reacting to them, providing a somatic tool for emotional regulation that complements talk therapy.
