Drug Rehab Centers Reduce Stress Through Sound

Tinnitus/Sound Pillow « Holistic Lifestyles Radio

Sound Pillow -Drug Rehab Centers Reduce Stress Through Sound.

Sound Pillow represents another way in which the philosophy of holistic healing is used to support the physical, mental and spiritual growth for addicts. Healing Sound Pillow uses a pillow to reproduce sound from any listening device to help addicts to reduce stress and create a sense of balance within and around them. Traditional spiritual and healing practices have recognized the power of sound for thousands of years. Chants, church bells, drumbeats and sung or spoken rituals have been used to alter moods, create different energy states and to facilitate communication with spiritual powers throughout history.

All these practitioners have intuitively understood that sound represents energy, energy which can be transmitted and used by humans to reach higher levels of health and consciousness. Practitioners of this ancient ritual enjoy a more complete relaxation and deeper focus during meditation, resulting in greater levels of stress release.

The Sound Pillow offers a rewarding alternative therapy that can be integrated into a client’s lifelong meditative practice to reduce the stresses of life that addicts all look to escape.The Sound Pillow put one on every client’s bed and the new comers will have help dealing with those sleepless nights. The new comer complaint list is as followed: I Can’t Sleep have Anxiety I mind always races I can’t focus I feel stressed I can’t concentrate Fear keeps me up Not knowing my future is making me angry This with many more very confusing conversations are going on in the newly recovered addicts head. Help The Band Stop playing introduce the Sound Pillow to your Addiction Treatment like the other treatment centers around the country.

Approved Supervisors serve a very important role - a mentor for the next generation of marriage and family therapists. AAMFT Approved Supervisors are dedicated professionals who have obtained the rigorous educational, experiential and supervisory training required for the competent supervision of marriage and family therapists and trainees. Those who have earned the designation serve as mentors who support and nurture their supervisees' strengths and resources, and provide a learning environment that ensures thorough marriage and family therapy (MFT) training and education.AAMFT Approved Supervisors have a breadth and depth of MFT clinical and supervisory experience, and they stay involved in the professional MFT community. They are committed to refining their clinical and supervisory skills, and they participate in ongoing professional development through their affiliation with the AAMFT.

Dr. Palmer was recently nominated for President of the Palm Beach Association of Marriage and Family Therapy and has extensive experience working with eating disorders and addictions and in a variety of mental health settings including at several inpatient, residential and outpatient facilities. Her specialty is eating disorder recovery and relationships, but she works with individuals, couples, and families of those suffering from a variety of complex mental health and relational issues, and completed residency working with those with schizophrenia, DID, addictions and trauma. In the realm of eating disorders, Palmer is known for establishing the first ethnicity, culture and identity group in the U.S. at the renowned inpatient treatment facility, which earned her national recognition. She founded a successful eating disorders program called WISE at Hollywood Pavilion Hospital in Hollywood, Florida, and served as the Clinical Director. The program is one of the few in the US accepting medicare for the treatment of eating disorders. During her term participants in the program achieved extraordinary success and healing, many of them experienced long-term benefits of recovery for the first time in many years. The WISE Program (Women's Institute for Self-Empowerment and Sensible Eating) now extends to The Renew Center of Florida in Boca Raton under Dr. Palmer's leadership. The Boca Raton program is a modification of the original design, customized for the clients The Renew Center serves.

Dr. Palmer's work in the eating disorder field and beyond has been attractive to numerous magazine, television, and radio publications.

She later earned a Master's degree in marriage and family therapy followed by a PhD at Nova Southeastern University. After achieving national recognition as the youngest state delegate at Miss USA in her early years, she then pursued the field of broadcast journalism. She entered an interesting career as a general assignment TV news reporter working at a variety of media outlets throughout the country; worked at The White House, where she served as an intern for the press secretary's office covering vice-presidential and presidential radio news events; had a stint at CNN in Atlanta, where she served as an editorial assistant turned weekend writer; and as a television news reporter at CBS and NBC affiliates. She later changed her life story to include a new direction that seemed more purposeful and fulfilling, at which point she reinvented her career to include a life of vitality, harmony, and to make a difference for others!

While Dr. Palmer now prefers to spend her time behind the scenes developing programs, doing research, writing articles, and helping clients to reinvent themselves and overcome obstacles, her passion has not faltered. She is dedicated to coaching and healing others on ways to manifest their dreams and aspirations in their everyday lives. She brings a breadth of knowledge, experience, compassion, and dedication to every endeavor she commits herself to.

A Healthy Heart and Mind During The Holidays Can Be Possible
November 23, 2009

Mashed potatoes, homemade stuffing, chocolate cake, and pie may sound like a good mix of foods for a holiday celebration. How ever, they are not a good mix for a good diet. If you are trying to stick with your healthy heart diet throughout the holidays, you won't be shocked to know that you will face your ultimate temptations during the holiday times. It can be more than difficult to stick with your healthy body plan.

Many people abandon it totally, only to start back up after the New Year. But, if you are serious about staying healthy, you should continue your regular diet and exercise program, no matter what holiday is rolling around! Diet Sure, it can be extremely challenging to stick with your diet during the holidays. When you sit down to Thanksgiving dinner at your grandmother's house, you won't want to offend her by passing on the stuffing and cheese potatoes. So, you will have to do some thinking.

If you are afraid to offend those cooking for you, be sure to take a little of everything. If you stick with small portions you should be good to go. Don't finish everything on your plate however. If you get the opportunity to bring something for the dinner, be sure you choose something that is healthy. That way you can have more of that healthy dish and less of the fattening dishes.

If you are lucky enough to cook the entire meal, then you can add heart healthy foods throughout. Your family might not be too keen on the idea of eating healthy at first, but they will thank you later for your good judgment.

A Healthy Heart and Mind During The Holidays Can Be Possible


Mashed potatoes, homemade stuffing, chocolate cake, and pie may sound like a good mix of foods for a holiday celebration. How ever, they are not a good mix for a good diet. If you are trying to stick with your healthy heart diet throughout the holidays, you won't be shocked to know that you will face your ultimate temptations during the holiday times. It can be more than difficult to stick with your healthy body plan. Many people abandon it totally, only to start back up after the New Year. But, if you are serious about staying healthy, you should continue your regular diet and exercise program, no matter what holiday is rolling around! Diet Sure, it can be extremely challenging to stick with your diet during the holidays. When you sit down to Thanksgiving dinner at your grandmother's house, you won't want to offend her by passing on the stuffing and cheese potatoes. So, you will have to do some thinking. If you are afraid to offend those cooking for you, be sure to take a little of everything. If you stick with small portions you should be good to go. Don't finish everything on your plate however. If you get the opportunity to bring something for the dinner, be sure you choose something that is healthy. That way you can have more of that healthy dish and less of the fattening dishes. If you are lucky enough to cook the entire meal, then you can add heart healthy foods throughout. Your family might not be too keen on the idea of eating healthy at first, but they will thank you later for your good judgment.

"Substance dependence"


"Substance dependence When an individual persists in use of alcohol or other drugs despite problems related to use of the substance, substance dependence may be diagnosed. Compulsive and repetitive use may result in tolerance to the effect of the drug and withdrawal symptoms when use is reduced or stopped. This, along with Substance Abuse is considered Substance Use Disorders...
Terminology has become quite complicated in the field. Pharmacologists continue to speak of addiction from a physiologic standpoint (some call this a physical dependence); psychiatrists refer to the disease state as psychological dependence; most other physicians refer to the disease as addiction.
The medical community now makes a careful theoretical distinction between physical dependence (characterized by symptoms of withdrawal) and psychological dependence (or simply addiction). Addiction is now narrowly defined as "uncontrolled, compulsive use"; if there is no harm being suffered by, or damage done to, the patient or another party, then clinically it may be considered compulsive, but to the definition of some it is not categorized as 'addiction'. In practice, the two kinds of addiction are not always easy to distinguish. Addictions often have both physical and psychological components.
There is also a lesser known situation called pseudo-addiction. A patient will exhibit drug-seeking behavior reminiscent of psychological addiction, but they tend to have genuine pain or other symptoms that have been under-treated. Unlike true psychological addiction, these behaviors tend to stop when the pain is adequately treated. The obsolete term physical addiction is deprecated, because of its connotations. In modern pain management with opioids physical dependence is nearly universal. While opiates are essential in the treatment of acute pain, the benefit of this class of medication in chronic pain is not well proven. Clearly, there are those who would not function well without opiate treatment; on the other hand, many states are noting significant increases in non-intentional deaths related to opiate use High-quality, long-term studies are needed to better delineate the risks and benefits of chronic opiate use.
Physical dependency
Physical dependence on a substance is defined by the appearance of characteristic withdrawal symptoms when the substance is suddenly discontinued. Opiates, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, alcohol and nicotine induce physical dependence. On the other hand, some categories of substances share this property and are still not considered addictive: cortisone, beta blockers and most antidepressants are examples. So, while physical dependency can be a major factor in the psychology of addiction and most often becomes a primary motivator in the continuation of an addiction, the initial primary attribution of an addictive substance is usually its ability to induce pleasure, although with continued use the goal is not so much to induce pleasure as it is to relieve the anxiety caused by the absence of a given addictive substance, causing it to become used compulsively.
Some substances induce physical dependence or physiological tolerance - but not addiction - for example many laxatives, which are not psychoactive; nasal decongestants, which can cause rebound congestion if used for more than a few days in a row; and some antidepressants, most notably venlafaxine, paroxetine and sertraline, as they have quite short half-lives, so stopping them abruptly causes a more rapid change in the neurotransmitter balance in the brain than many other antidepressants. Many non-addictive prescription drugs should not be suddenly stopped, so a doctor should be consulted before abruptly discontinuing them.
The speed with which a given individual becomes addicted to various substances varies with the substance, the frequency of use, the means of ingestion, the intensity of pleasure or euphoria, and the individual's genetic and psychological susceptibility. Some people may exhibit alcoholic tendencies from the moment of first intoxication, while most people can drink socially without ever becoming addicted. Opioid dependent individuals have different responses to even low doses of opioids than the majority of people, although this may be due to a variety of other factors, as opioid use heavily stimulates pleasure-inducing neurotransmitters in the brain. Nonetheless, because of these variations, in addition to the adoption and twin studies that have been well replicated, much of the medical community is satisfied that addiction is in part genetically moderated. That is, one's genetic makeup may regulate how susceptible one is to a substance and how easily one may become psychologically attached to a pleasurable routine.
Eating disorders are complicated pathological mental illnesses and thus are not the same as addictions described in this article. Eating disorders, which some argue are not addictions at all, are driven by a multitude of factors, most of which are highly different than the factors behind addictions described in this article. It has been reported, however, that patients with eating disorders can successfully be treated with the same non-pharmacological protocols used in patients with chemical addiction disorders. Gambling is another potentially addictive behavior with some biological overlap. Conversely gambling urges have emerged with the administration of Mirapex (pramipexole), a dopamine agonist.
The DSM definition of addiction can be boiled down to compulsive use of a substance (or engagement in an activity) despite ongoing negative consequences—this is also a summary of what used to be called "psychological dependency." Physical dependence, on the other hand, simply needs a substance to function. Humans are all physically dependent on oxygen, food and water. A drug can cause physical dependence and not addiction (for example, some blood pressure medications, which can produce fatal withdrawal symptoms if not tapered) and can cause addiction without physical dependence (the withdrawal symptoms associated with cocaine are all psychological, there is no associated vomiting or diarrhea as there is with opioid withdrawal).
In the now outdated conceptualization of the problem, psychological dependency leads to psychological withdrawal symptoms (such as cravings, irritability, insomnia, depression, anorexia, etc). Addiction can in theory be derived from any rewarding behavior, and is believed to be strongly associated with the dopaminergic system of the brain's reward system (as in the case of cocaine and amphetamines). Some claim that it is a habitual means to avoid undesired activity, but typically it is only so to a clinical level in individuals who have emotional, social, or psychological dysfunctions (psychological addiction is defined as such), replacing normal positive stimuli not otherwise attained.
A person who is physically dependent, but not psychologically dependent can have their dose slowly dropped until they are no longer physically dependent. However, if that person is psychologically dependent, they are still at serious risk for relapse into abuse and subsequent physical dependence.
Psychological dependence does not have to be limited only to substances; even activities and behavioral patterns can be considered addictions, if they become uncontrollable, e.g. problem gambling, Internet addiction, computer addiction, sexual addiction / pornography addiction, overeating, self-injury, compulsive buying, or work addiction.
