Alcohol - The Most Common Addiction | Edward Handley (HARP Private Rehab) - S3EP3

Описание: In this deeply insightful episode, we sit down with Edward Handley, the founder of HARP (Holistic Addiction Recovery Program), to unpack how a whole-person approach is changing the way we view and treat addiction.

Edward shares HARP’s unique philosophy, one that goes far beyond detox and medication. We explore how their holistic model — encompassing physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual care — has supported thousands each month on their journey to recovery.

We discuss the realities of relapse, the impact of COVID on alcohol use, the rise of recreational drug use among young people, and what separates social drinking from a dangerous dependency. Edward also speaks on the importance of aftercare, how HARP adapts to evolving substance trends, and the personal, often philosophical, questions that arise on the road to healing — including one big one: What is the point of life?

Whether you're curious, seeking help, or supporting someone who is, this episode is packed with raw honesty and hope.
