In this video, Dallas Bragg shares his personal experience of how the Christmas and New Year's holidays used to trigger binge drinking due to time off work and the overwhelming stress of the season. He explains that holiday stress can destabilize sobriety and erase recovery progress. Bragg introduces his guided meditation practice, specifically the "field of escape," which he describes as a mental space that provides temporary relief, calms the nervous system, and offers an alternative to drug use. He highlights the benefits of his meditations for stress reduction, relaxation, and achieving heart‑brain coherence. Finally, he invites viewers to DM the word "meditate" to receive a free guided meditation called "Meet Your Addiction," which aims to help users confront the energy of their addiction and separate their identity from it.

The Christmas and New Year's holiday used to be a total binger for me. One, I had time off from work, and two, the stress and chaos of the holidays was too much for me to handle. The stress of the holidays can shake the very foundation of your sobriety and erase all the progress you've made. In most of my guided meditations, I take you to what I call the field of escape, where you can temporarily find complete relief from life in a way that calms your nervous system and instead of overloading it with drugs. My meditations offer a path to stress reduction, relaxation, and heart-brain coherence. If you're ready to take your recovery journey to the next level, try one of my free guided meditations. DM me meditate and I'll send you my favorite one, which is called Meet Your Addiction, where you come in contact with the energy of your addiction so you can separate your identity from it.
