If right now is an infinite moment that isn't based in time, the expression of that infinite capacity becomes easy to express thoughtfully, rather than continue to be thoughtless and wonder how I'm going to finally get what I've made an investment for years and it's never going to pay off.
What if the key to overcoming addiction lies in understanding our mental obsessions? In this episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion', hosts Jackie and Gabe dive deep into the concept of emotional sobriety and its crucial role in addiction recovery. They tackle the tough questions left by Alyssa and Sturgis III, like why we often need a near-death experience to wake up to the reality and awe of the present moment.
The duo unpacks why we focus on 'fools rush in' while ignoring 'where angels fear to tread', exploring how awe and essence are lost in our rush through life. Jackie and Gabe's conversation is a blend of profound insights and practical advice, touching on how compulsive behaviors are tied to mental illness and addiction. They discuss the difficulty of letting go of ego-driven thoughts and how numbness is not the absence of pain but a sign of it.
The episode also highlights the importance of awareness, responsibility, and useful thinking in achieving emotional sobriety. For anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a fresh perspective on breaking free from the endless cycle of self-improvement and finding true emotional balance.
