Health and Healing Dealing with Trauma and Addictions
Hello, welcome to the podcast of health and healing in the areas of addiction and abuse, with Michael. My passion and interest started with becoming aware that many of us have childhood traumas that we carry into our adult lives, but we didn't have them addressed or never acknowledged that we had an addiction or a mental illness. Some of the abuses we suffered were slight or verbal, so we just wrote them off; other abuses were kept in secret for many years. Now we want to expose those lie-based beliefs through tools and partnering with the Holy Spirit to help us heal those traumas and illnesses to become whole. Hurt people hurt people, so we must seek ways to heal so that we can assist others in their healing journey. Disclaimer:

However, I am licensed and an ordained minister whose interest was piqued as it related to my personal journey and struggles with addictions and abuses that found their way into every aspect of my life unknowingly—well, maybe knowingly. God knows I'm a work in progress, and so are you. Come along as we heal together.

As we journey through life, it's natural to experience changes in behavior. Some changes aren't all bad, as we have been told. Many of the changes we encounter as we age are positive.
Yes, some aspects allow aging people to observe how seniors display behaviors that seem to transport them back to their youth or earlier stages of life. Here's what nobody tells you about aging: every year comfort becomes more seductive, and routines solidify; your circles shrink, and before you know it, you're living in a world that's getting smaller and smaller. For some elders, that's ok; for others, not so much!
Are you saying YES to life's invitations?
Anxiety can trigger depression and other behavioral, physical, and mental health issues. It is especially hard if you are dealing with other personal, work, relationship, or family-related issues. Please be aware that it is okay to ask for help.
