Spring Webinar Series
BEFRIENDING THE BRAIN IN RECOVERY: HOW TO BUILD SUCESSFUL & SUSTAINED SOBRIETY: Presented by Dr. Bob Weathers
Tying in principles and methods from his recent books on recovery resilience, Bob Weathers, PhD, CMHRS, integrates and applies practical insights from one of the hottest areas of current substance use disorders research: nervous system regulation. Dr. Weathers breaks down these recent scientific findings into easy-to-understand concepts – for “building the brain in recovery” – along the way, providing numerous hands-on exercises to engage learners. He incorporates a host of helpful applications: from cognitive-behavioral strategies and mindfulness to polyvagal theory and interpersonal neurobiology. He closes the workshop with a warm-hearted invitation into dialoguing in real time with workshop attendees’ questions and comments -- all with the expressed wish of offering innovative, cutting-edge resources for anyone interested in how to successfully sustain sobriety
Learning Objectives:
Participants will be able to explain how the brain is distributed across the entire human body, and the implication this has for recovery from substance use disorders
Participants will be able to differentiate between the three primary branches of the nervous system, and how these various branches contribute to both substance use disorders and recovery
Participants will be able to demonstrate how to practically apply recovery resilience interventions in assisting those who are in recovery from substance use disorders
