In this episode of Noble Mind, Dr. Sarah Bowen joins Kate and Alex to discuss her work developing mindfulness-based relapse prevention (MBRP) for addiction and addictive behaviors. She explains how relapse is normal part of the recovery journey for most people and why shame doesn’t work as a prevention strategy. She also shares what differentiates mindfulness-based relapse prevention (MBRP) from traditional relapse prevention and other methods of working with addiction. Learn how MBRP helps to change our relationship with cravings and gives us agency over our behavior. Listen in for Dr. Bowen’s insight on navigating problematic habits that emerged during the pandemic for many of us.
