We've got to get to the origins of the problem. All addictions really do at the end of the day is try and relieve suffering
Ever felt like the usual ways of treating addiction just aren't cutting it? In this episode of 'Contemplative Intelligence© & Spiritual Transformation with Mark L Lockwood', Mark dives deep into the root causes of addiction, challenging the conventional methods that focus solely on the symptoms. Mark argues that treating addiction as a brain disease without addressing the underlying trauma and pain is like putting a plaster on a wound that needs stitches.
He believes that to truly help people recover, we need to understand and treat the emotional and psychological scars that lead to addictive behaviours in the first place. Mark shares compelling stories and insights about how people with long-term addictions can transform their lives by addressing the real issues behind their addiction. He emphasises the importance of genuine connection and personal authenticity in the recovery process.
According to Mark, when people start being true to themselves and build real connections, they no longer need to rely on substances or behaviours to escape their pain. Throughout the episode, you'll hear about the power of neuroplasticity and how the brain can adapt and heal when given the chance. Mark also discusses how fear and inauthenticity can drive people to addiction and how overcoming these can lead to self-love and a sense of belonging.
So, if you're tired of the same old approaches to addiction treatment and want to explore a more holistic and effective way to heal, this episode is a must-listen. It’s not just about stopping the addictive behaviour; it’s about finding a new way to live. Give it a listen and see how treating the cause, not just the symptoms, can make all the difference.
