Addiction
Thursday, February 28th, 2008Loise Hay says all addiction is running from self. I am wondering does addiction come from first chakra and tribal connection or does it stem from 5th chakra and one not being able to communicate or feel heard?
I do not agree with this world’s assesment of addiction and once an addict always an addict. I also take aim with the idea that it is expected for one to do rehab more then once. Carolyn Myss said you can be addicted to tofu if your 6th and 4th chakra are not in sync.
I have had several addictions over the years. First there was smoking, then there was drinking. I stopped both on my own in actually a short amount of time. I do see less toxic things I still do that I have decided are addictions. I say less toxic in this worlds idea of what is toxic but in reality any addiction is toxic to self and soul.
Now, I must question what are these behaviors adding to my life? I believe we can be addicts to relationships, thoughts and family dynamics that no longer work. I believe all those who suffer any type addiction, which I consdier long term habits the same, as running from oneself or diming one’s light to fit into the tribe. At the ripe old age of 47 I am realizing I no longer want those dynamics in my life. I am the only one that can change them because I am the one who has allowed them.
In Metaphysical thought, I believe we must first figure out the why in a situation and then address from there. Without the leading and vision of God though, I don’t think it can change. We can change on the surface but not the deep place of the wound. As I become a little wiser and more understanding of the subconcious world this state of mind and physicality offers, I understand change requires going into the deep. Continue the journey of self through and you will becomes whole and no longer a narcissit. Why we are so blinded by denial is part of the egos scheme and world motto. Let go of the illusion face the hard truth and freedom will ensue.
