The roots of addiction can be seen in our search for happiness in something outside of our self, be it drugs, relationships, material possessions.

You can learn to focus on love in your heart rather than the symptoms of your physical condition.

When the mind no longer sees itself as a body, forever in bondage to the body, the mind can be free and at peace even when we are physically sick.

For me, the more I don't foolishly waste my life wishing for a better past the more free I am today to create, grow, and love.

Becoming less focused on the past and future and not resisting the moment is how to overcome fear, physical pain, and all suffering.

Inspirational Psychology includes the practical application of identifying the thoughts and mistaken beliefs that cause us pain, along with a contemplative practice to discover our true nature, which is Love.

For years I was so busy building walls I did not see I was imprisoning myself behind them, and did not recognize this pattern as being addiction. My addictive thinking and behavior became the bars of my cell. Denying feeling empty inside, I constantly looked for new things to acquire, people to be around, substances to take, and new goals to achieve in order to feel better about myself. Over the last four decades I have focused on healing my addictive mind and helping others do the same.
