In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Greg Vorst and Michael Nolan, co-founders of Embodied Recovery, to explore the deeper roots of addiction and mental health struggles. Together, they unpack the powerful idea that “the illness is often in the personality,” and how true recovery requires more than abstinence—it demands transformation of how we live, breathe, and relate to ourselves and others. The conversation covers the role of learned helplessness, how body-based practices like Sundo breathing can loosen ingrained patterns, and why recovery is not just coping but awakening into aliveness, peace, and purpose. This dialogue is direct, thought-provoking, and filled with practical insights for anyone navigating healing, trauma, or transformation. About the Guests Greg Vorst is a licensed therapist, recovery mentor, and practitioner of Sundo—an ancient Taoist breathing and meditation practice. With decades of experience, he bridges psychology, spiritual wisdom, and embodiment work to create practical tools for everyday healing. Michael Nolan is a recovery leader and transformational teacher whose lived experience fuels his work. He helps people move beyond abstinence into awakening—shifting from helplessness to empowerment, and from survival to authentic living. Together, they founded Embodied Recovery, a pioneering treatment center in Silicon Valley. Key Takeaways Healing is not only about treating symptoms but reshaping personality patterns that keep us stuck. Learned helplessness can keep people trapped, but small nudges from community and structure restore agency. Abstinence is only the foundation—true recovery comes from transforming how we live and relate. The body holds psychological defenses; breathwork and embodiment practices can release stored tension and unlock healing. Protective personality traits (like armoring or judgment) may once have been survival mechanisms but can block intimacy and growth if left unchecked. Recovery is not just coping—it’s awakening to aliveness, responsibility, spiritual connection, and empowered choice. A practical first step: share your struggle with a safe friend, guide, or community—truth-telling begins the healing journey.
