How to Survive and Thrive with addiction, with Lisa Horwell

How do you begin to recover from an addiction that has plagued you for over twenty years? Lisa started drinking at the age of seven, developed a dependency at eleven and got herself on the way to recovery at thirty-four. Fifteen years later Lisa is now a yoga therapist helping other people in recovery. In this episode, we talk about growing up in East London in the 70s, about arrested development and about how helping others gives her the strength to stay clean and sober.   Follow Lisa on Instagram @horwelllisa or on Facebook thegratefulretreat   The book(s): James Frey’s A Million Little Pieces, Anthony Kiedis’s Scar Tissue, Johann Hari’s Chasing the Scream and Lost Connections.   Check out her retreats in Brittany - France on her website or email her on [email protected]   If you're looking for looking for information on or support with addiction go to: www.ukna.org www.alcoholics-anonymous.org.uk/aa-meetings/find-a-meeting   Don't forget to subscribe, share and review.   Follow us on Twitter @missleonardis
