Show Notes

Why do some people battle with addictions their entire lives while others make a full recovery?

The key to healing, like most physical dis-eases, is something far deeper and more targeted than a 12-step program built like conventional medicine to treat everyone for a variety of problems that never really get solved.

Dean Taraborelli describes his 30-year journey from addiction to recovery that led him to create the Sanctuary at Sedona in this revealing Living 4D episode.
