aDDiction ~ It’s Not Just for AlcoHoLics!

Addiction… it’s not just for ‘AlcoHoLics’!! We are ALL addicted to something - likely multiple things. Things we consume, eat, listen to, worry about, indulge in, partake in, get stuck in! The possibilities are endless! And so are the methods in which we can become more conscious about our addictions and mindfully honour our pleasure whilst releasing the guilt and shame!

We are bombarded on a daily basis (hourly, minutely, secondly) with endless and never-ending opportunities to make ourselves feel better!

Whether it is in a scarcity or fear-based 'consumption' - like protection of locks, lights, insurance, risk prevention, prescriptions DRUGS and outsourcing our agency to trust our own bodies.... or the other end of the spectrum is financial 'freedom', loads of money for anything we want, healthy social circles, following our passions and wildest dreams: ... or somewhere in between - ice cream, sex, Netflix, scrolling, relationships/partnerships, the mundane activities in life!

You name it - we are on a Constant Hunt - and Receiving of pleasures and indulgences and consumption to wet our appetite or take us down a road to hell and misery because we are now 'out of control'.

Addiction sneaks up on us! It's not just for alcoholics... it is a slippery slope and if we're not aware of what is entering our field - through our mouth, ears, skin, sight, energetic - we can quickly (or slowly) become numb to it and require MORE more more to 'keep up'.

Money! Are we all addicted to that just a bit? Or a lot? If you don't have it or think it's not enough, you're constantly thinking about, working toward, seeking, calling in... and it consumes your every thought or nightmare. Or you have boatloads and you're now thinking of all the ways in which you can maximize, grow, protect, share or hoard it!

I would place a large bet of money that each and every person reading this has suffered from the Addiction of MONEY!
