Lacey speaks to Nikki Myers, the founder of Yoga of 12-Step Recovery (Y12SR) about how her experience with recovery and relapse inspired her to create Y12SR, a donation-based program that offers 12-step recovery meetings combined with yoga. They talk about how yoga has a direct impact on addiction recovery, what to expect in a Y12SR meeting, and all about somatic therapy. They also talk about how to take care of yourself during this time when emotions can be particularly strong and overwhelming.
