- How meditation can help manage compulsive behaviours.
- The concept of absolute knowing and its impact on mental health.

To observe it is not to be it. To be it is to think there's nothing else we can do about it.
This episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety' takes a deep dive into the mental aspects of addiction and how our thoughts shape our reality. The hosts, Jack and Anthony, along with guest Les, engage in an unstructured yet profound conversation about the nature of obsessive thinking and its impact on sobriety.
They explore the concept that our thoughts are not reality but merely a product of it, and how recognising this can lead to a more peaceful and stable life. Les shares his experiences with meditation and how observing his thoughts, rather than being consumed by them, has helped him manage his compulsive behaviours. The discussion also touches on the idea of absolute knowing and the difference between acting on thoughts versus simply observing them.
With light humour and candid reflections, this episode offers valuable insights for anyone dealing with addiction or compulsive behaviours. By understanding that our thoughts do not define us, we can find freedom and clarity in sobriety. Don't miss out on this enlightening conversation that could change the way you view your own thoughts and behaviours.
