There is a harm reduction protocol to help people reduce alcohol consumption. It is a medication assisted treatment plan known as The Sinclair Method, or TSM. Based on the theories of Nobel Prize winning scientist, Ivan Pavlov, TSM utilizes an effect known as pharmacological extinction. The basics of the method involve taking a naltrexone tablet one hour before having a drink. Of course, there is much to discuss. This is a fascinating alternative way of quitting alcohol gradually which has a 78% success rate.

In this podcast, we discuss mystical works of literature, primarily Taoist text, and how they relate to alcohol recovery. Taoist Philosophy can be an excellent tool for embracing the idea of a “Higher Power.” Nature offers all of the examples necessary for a concept of a source of all life, much different but yet very similar in many ways to more traditional religious thinking. Here is a link to an online version of the Tao Te Ching; https://ttc.tasuki.org/display:Year:1972,1988,1996,2004/section:1 Thanks for checking out our podcast. If you listen and enjoy this podcast, please share with your friends in recovery! Do you want to stop drinking? Does alcoholism or addiction run in your family? Are you considering how to get sober? Are you seriously thinking about sobriety for the first time being alcohol is controlling your life as never before? Has the idea of a “Higher Power” kept you out of Alcoholics Anonymous or other 12 Step recovery programs?

For his second Podiobook, Bill Schmalfeldt goes from the sublime to the ridiculous. His follow-up to the non-fiction “No Doorway Wide Enough” is this fanciful, hilarious narrative, voiced by disgraced, former alcoholic truck driver Billy Big Rig (who can never reveal his real name because everyone wants to kill him) who — if he is to be believed — infiltrated a terror cell, went to Afghanistan, and single-handedly saved America from another terror attack in the days after 9/11. Along the way, he shares his philosophy about life, love, truckstop meals and waitresses, men’s room protocol, how he killed the REAL Saddam Hussein, and his many, many marriages. This will probably be the most politically-incorrect book you will read or hear all year. Definitely not for the kiddies, mostly for language, violence, and brief nudity. If you download this book and are offended, it’s YOUR fault, not the author’s! You’ve been warned. But if you like a bawdy, action-packed story, told by a character who is one part Stephen Colbert, one part Archie Bunker, one part Forrest Gump, one part John Wayne and 100 percent AMERICAN MAN, then you’ll LOVE “Undercover Trucker: How I Saved America by Truckin’ Towels for the Taliban.” In a manly way, I mean. Billy doesn’t swing that way. That sh*t just ain’t right! WARNING TO THE SATIRE IMPAIRED: You will need ALL your satire glands in order to enjoy this.

This podcast attempts to get at the daily struggle of fulfilling the order to be “happy, joyous, and free.” What can we do when our thoughts betray and disempower us? What options do we have when are trapped by misery of our own making? What happens when things don’t go the way you want or expect them to? By sharing my own experiences, and inviting others to share theirs, we can discover new ways of thinking and being, and hold ourselves accountable for the next time happiness, joy, and freedom seem like a distant memory or an unattainable goal.

We are all recovering from something in life. We are all in the process of recovering from the disconnection from our true self. The goal of Recovery Squared is to change what it means to recover and move from labels of addiction, alcoholism, depression, disease, divorce, illness and other manifestations. We focus on the core internal work that is required for us to recover together regardless of the symptom. Recovery Squared is a platform of inspiration and possibility to recover fully and live a life of purpose. Recovery Squared is about moving beyond living clean and sober and taking a step beyond 12-step, AA, Alcoholics Anonymous, and NA, Narcotics Anonymous into living your infinite potential. Some of the tools we cover on this show are biohacking, meditation, mindfulness, spirituality, alternative recovery, recovery yoga, nutrition, neuroscience and a holistic lifestyle to transcend into a thriving life of purpose.
