Dr Efosa Airuehia on Medicated Assisted Detox, Holistic Recovery and Sleep Hygiene
Hey Friends, Thanks for downloading the podcast! My name is Arlina and I'll be your host. Before we jump in I have a big announcement to share with you: If you are new to the idea of living an alcohol-free lifestyle or know someone who is, (we're calling it "Sober Curious" these days) I'm launching a new class called "Sobriety Reset-How to stop drinking for 30 Days" to help you get that first month under your belt. What I want you to know is that you CAN stop drinking - Even through the holidays! You don't have to have another crappy holiday because you did something you regret on what is supposed to be a special event. The idea behind Sobriety Reset comes from my own torturous experience in my early 20's when I knew drinking was a problem, but I wasn't ready for a 12 step program. It's what I wish I had at the time to save myself the shame and humiliation that comes from drinking too much. At the time, I really didn't think I was "That Bad" but my life was a mess, romantically, professionally, and even in my friendships, and I just couldn't figure out how to get a grip on my drinking. I spent 2 painful years suffering through my own research before I finally got what I needed, so my hope is that this course will be a short cut through that process for you and save you from needless heartache and suffering. This is a self-study course with videos, audios, worksheets, and online support, that you can use in the privacy of your own home. It answers big questions like "Am I an alcoholic" and "What will I do for fun" or "How to avoid drinking triggers" and even those embarrassing questions around "Sober Sex", which is a really big issue. There's 6 modules in total and some bonus content too. It launches Nov 24th, so head on over to SobrietyReset.com to get notified of when it's available, and if you do, there will be a special surprise for you! Today my guest is Dr. Efosa Air. He's got more degrees than a thermometer, and such a passion for helping people out of suffering. I felt so lucky that I got to spend some time with him. He shares some really powerful stories, insights into the mechanics of the brain as it relates to addiction, and many practical solutions to common problems people face early in recovery. He is very accessible and relatable, so don't be shy! If you would like to connect, you can find him through his website at addictionblueprint.com and Facebook Group. I'll leave links in the show notes, so head on over to odaatchat.com to get in touch. So with that, please enjoy this episode with Dr. Air!

Danielle - Author of Stroke of Sobriety, The Essential Guide to Embracing the Suck of sobriety
Hey Friends, Thanks for downloading the podcast! My name is Arlina and I'll be your host. Over the last 26 year, I've come to understand that we only allow into our lives what we believe we deserve. Those of us who have suffered through addiction typically come out of it with low self esteem. If you are struggling with self-sabotage and low self esteem, I have a new guide just for you! It's called "Self Esteem Starter Kit - Top 3 Tools to Rebuild Self-Esteem" You can download it for free at SoberLifeSchool.com. Today my guest is Danielle. She's got a new book coming out called "Stroke of Sobriety - Essential Guide to Embracing the Suck of sobriety" and if you are in early recovery or know someone who is, this book is a MUST. What I love about being a recovery podcast host is all the brilliant beautiful souls I get to meet. Danielle is fearlessly vulnerable, and courageously transparent. She shares the truth about what happened so that others who are trapped by shame, can find the hope they need to recover. Danielle is super sweet and 100% sassy and I adore her! So with that, please enjoy this conversation with Danielle.

Guest Links: PositiveRecoveryMD.com http://www.PositiveRecovery.com Hey Friends, Thanks for downloading the podcast! So for weeks I've been telling you that if you want to get the episodes via email, all you had to do was enter your email on the odaatchat.com. Little did I know, there was a problem with the sign up form! Lemme tell you, technology is blessing and a curse y'all. Good news is... it's fixed! And if you wanna check out some cool brain hacking videos or the best sleep meditations on the internet, I put those in the newsletter too. Today my guest is Dr Jason Powers, an actual doctor, certified by the board of addiction medicine. He is the host of Positive Recovery MD and the author of "When the Servant Becomes the Master: A Comprehensive Addiction Guide" Link to book ( https://amzn.to/2TyuJGz ) Just a heads up, I thought the recording got cut off so it ends kind of abruptly, which kind of goes along with the tech problems I've been having, but everything before that is awesome! So with that, please enjoy this conversation with Dr Powers!

Arlina on Life In Recovery Podcast
Thanks for downloading the podcast! This week's episode is actually an interview I did on my friend's podcast, Life in Recovery Podcast with Ren Koi. We are going to talk about a few controversial topics, so I just ask that you keep an open mind. Recovery is not a "one-size-fits-all" endeavor. Everyone is different and there are many many modalities of healing. Ultimately, I respect and honor how people choose to recover. If it helps you and you recover, then God bless you. I appreciate my friend and his thoughtful questions so much. He's doing great work and he helps a lot of people. He's a very prolific writer and I actually have the honor of writing the forward of his latest book, "All is one". It's a deeply thoughtful book and I'll have him on my podcast again to talk about it some more. So with that, please enjoy this conversation, with me and my friend Ren!
