Kimberly Thompson, Founder of White Flag Recovery Yoga, on how she uses yoga and the cognitive approach of the 12 Steps to discover and discard the trauma our bodies develop in our addictions

Kimberly's White Flag Yoga practice is dedicated to rekindling our connection with the central nervous system through purposeful movement. By doing so, it empowers individuals to confront trauma and unearth their authentic selves. This holistic approach not only aids in navigating the repercussions of substances like Adderall and Vyvanse, which directly affect the central nervous system, but also facilitates personal growth through a blend of movement, meditation, and insights drawn from the cognitive strategies of the 12 steps. I wholeheartedly advocate for integrating yoga into your routine, whether through Kimberly's specialized practice or attending basic classes at your local YMCA. Embracing this practice can lead to profound discoveries within yourself, enriching your mind-body connection in unexpected ways. I hope Kimberly's personal story and practice inspires you to try yoga as a healthy way to thrive without Adderall and Vyvanse!
