Your willpower when it comes to controlling your addiction is absolutely useless, and that's why god, or a higher power of your understanding, plays such an important part, because you need to completely surrender to that higher power, to allow you to understand that you are absolutely powerless without the help of god.
Heather Fagan's journey is nothing short of remarkable. In this episode of 'The Gift of Addiction', Heather opens up about her time with the NSW Police Force, dealing with the intense stress of handling stabbings, shootings, and domestic violence. These harrowing experiences took a toll on her mental health, leading her to struggle with co-dependency and anxiety. But Heather's story doesn't end there.
She speaks candidly about reaching out for help and finding solace in a rehabilitation centre, marking one of the pivotal moments in her life. The other turning point? Her discovery of Islam. Heather explains how embracing spirituality has transformed her life in profound ways. She dives into the principles of Islam, highlighting the importance of gratitude, appreciation, and the connection between consciousness and addiction. Her story is a testament to the power of faith in recovery.
Heather also touches on the significance of finding the right therapist and the concept of surrendering to a higher power to overcome addiction. This episode is a blend of raw honesty and hope, offering valuable insights for anyone facing similar struggles.
