FROM ADDICTION TO PEACE.

Every person is looking outside of themselves to ease their suffering. Most often this is unconsciously.

Due to varying degrees of life’s conditioned beliefs, we use a whole host of outlets in an attempt to ease our emotional pain.

Drama, shopping, alcohol, gambling are some examples and we know that they can of course seem difficult to let go of.

Outer problems and the subsequent emotional disturbance is most often clouded with a confusion of not knowing how to turn things around.

We don’t know any other way, so of course we are doing the only thing we know right now in order to escape our pain.

We then have the guilt, shame, fear of the addiction in addition to the original suffering that we’re attempting to ease.

This, in turn, increases the spiral… See the pattern here?

What may not be so obvious is the biggest addiction that the human race is living with is the unconscious pull toward negative thought.

But what to do instead?

Meditation is a way for us to start to see all of this for what it is and for it to lose its grip on us.

From the quieter space within, not only can solutions been seen clearer but any self judgement and pain can we witnessed instead of being enmeshed with.

This power of witnessing, in turn, starts to loosen the entanglement of addictive urges.

It isn’t unheard of that some have seen through this swiftly and the pull of addiction drops away quite quickly, however in general this takes a process and although the journey is rarely linear it is absolutely worth it.

Once a dedicated practice is established, there will, in time, be less and less desire to look to outside things for a ‘hit’ of happiness.

You will simply not want to disturb the innate inner stillness that you are starting to experience.

The meditations I have created and the guidance I offer take you on a compassionate route which is the most wise practice for a slow and gentle pace to recognising the Peace, Love and stillness within.

With Love.
