#23 Fear Of The Dark

Fear of the dark. We have a long relationship with the dark and many people have used this fear to their advantage. It’s important because it can give us some perspective over how much control we have over our mind, versus how much of what we do is based on our genetic coding.

Genetic

There is a field of study that has looked at how much of our behavior and actions are directly tied to our genes. This is important if you suffer with any addiction, whether its food, sex, alcohol or drugs. Are we able to win the war against our base natures or are we doomed to suffer eternally?

Rise above

There is so much we know and there is so little we know. Years ago we thought the Atom was the smallest particle, now it’s a Quark? We have done so much research trying to understand ‘mind over matter’ and how to rise above.

Where to begin

This work has to start somewhere and the jumping off point is accepting how powerless we are over the world and it’s things. This brings us to the point of doing something about us and our mind. To learn more please listen to the podcast.

I hope you enjoy it!

This podcast was recorded as a series of lectures given to people in 12 step addiction recovery treatment. The purpose of these talks was to teach and motivate individuals to search for their own spiritual solution to their addiction.

Stories of Recovery

The encouragement, love and support from the team at Crossroads allowed me to eventually see that I was worth something - that my life could be turned around and that I could accomplish the things that had long been a forgotten dream.

On the last day of my stint at Crossroads I could only express gratitude towards all who works there. A wise councillor once commented on my question when one is ready for rehab by explaining that when one is ready for rehab, rehab is ready for you.

I was lost and my soul was broken until I ended up at Crossroads and was introduced to the Twelve Steps. With the help of their excellent staff and amazing support I have recently been clean for 18 months, I could not have done it without them!

#18 Therapist Or Executive Burnout

01 November, 2018Podcasts, News

Faced with no options, where do we turn? If your life is going to pieces and you are doing everything right and what you are experiencing shouldn’t be happening, how do you survive? As a person who has experienced therapist or executive burnout , it can be a total nightmare. It feels like you might just loose it completely.

No matter where I looked there where no answers and I felt total alone. I had no idea what to do. I didn’t want to use chemicals, my experience being they don’t work. The ultimate sacrifice wasn’t an option because over a period of many years, I had begun to love my family and didn’t want to hurt them like that.

All that was left was to surrender, completely different from resigning to my most awful fate.
