EPISODE 74 What is addiction with Stewart Gilchrist
.
THE LEGEND IS BACK! Stewart Gilchrist. We recorded this episode on the 26th of October last year and this is a very special one, we speak about addiction, how much yoga will interfere with your addiction and how Stewart skipped the 13 steps and went straight to the mat and started what he calls his “detox protocol” through yoga.
.
He explains how yoga gave him the discipline to change, how addiction is an illness which can’t be cured but how with the help of yoga addictions as well as habits can be replaced, how yoga reduces habit and fluctuations. How he learned about DETACHMENT and he explains that addictions aren’t just substance related, but behavioural too.
.
Inspired by a workshop series he did last year about addiction, I invited Stew to come back and have a chat about his path as I think it is such an inspirational one and I hope many of you will take something away from this wonderful episode with guest host Vegan Straight Edge activist and artist Miguel Sarzedas. who explains his path, his journey and what straight edge means and his vision on living alcohol and drug free.
