Eckhart Tolle, author of “A New Earth – Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose“, mentions a solution for addictions on page 246 – 248 of his book.
He refers to an addiction as “an energy field that periodically takes you over completely”. The voice in your head then becomes the voice of the addiction.
Here is a tip – “when you notice the compulsive need arising in you, stop and take three conscious breaths. This generates awareness.” (which is one of the key elements in the book) “Then for a few minutes be aware of the compulsive urge itself as an energy field inside you.”
Feel this desire consciously. Take more conscious breaths and be aware of the compulsive urges. As your awareness grows, Mr. Tolle states that your addictive patterns will weaken and eventually dissolve.
The author states that the reason people seek out drug-induced highs is because they are not in touch with themselves and the “aliveness within them” so they look for substitutes.
As you may be aware, Eckhart Tolle did a program with Oprah about the book and over 750,000 signed up for the webcasts over a period of 10 weeks. (This must have been the largest on-line class ever!)
I have read the book and have found it enlightening. It makes you think and you just may end up viewing your life much different than previously.
If you’ve been discouraged and defeated by past programs and are still stuck in the confines of self-abusive behavior and/or thoughts, the Lenair Self(s) Heal Experience is a possibility that can set you free from needing and wanting to self-sabotage. See this post: medical intuitive healings for addictions.
Here is another resource by Dr. CE Gant: End Your Addiction Now book. The book guides readers to take a biochemical approach to the treatment of substance-use disorders, and provides step-by-step directions for those who want to quit their addictions on their own.
