Do you find yourself overeating during this stressful time? Maybe drinking or smoking more than you would like? What about shopping or gambling? And how’s your relationship to your phone these days? Dr. Jud says we all sit somewhere on the spectrum of addiction. And when you add stress into the system- in this time of pandemic, recession, and racial strife- many of us move the wrong way along the spectrum, toward hardcore addiction. And of course, for people who already have full blown addictions, the current conditions can be an utter disaster. Dr. Jud has good news. He’s used mindfulness and meditation to treat people with addictions to cigarettes, food, and opioids.
