Your body has a wellspring of infinite wisdom and intelligence that operates outside of your conscious thought. Your heart beats, your lungs breathe, your cells regenerate, you can smile, talk, think, and smell...all without even giving it a second thought (well most of us can anyway). So what is that thing in us that makes us reach for the quick fix: the box of cookies, bottle of wine, yet another volunteer opportunity, cigarettes or whatever our "drug" of choice may be?

I say, all is not as it appears. We think we're being really dumb, we get so disgusted with ourselves when we drink too much, eat too much, shop too much or whatever it is that we do too much. But what is really happening is something startlingly simple: the physician within is doing the best it can based on the level that it can be seen and heard to heal the body, to relieve pain and to be at peace...even if just for an elusive moment, where we know there will be hell to pay. And because we forget that the body has infinite wisdom, we interpret our moves as being "bad", when we should be paying attention to everything we feel, say and do. We miss the signals and the signs the body is giving because we immediately go into judgment and we don't get present enough, nor hold the compassion to go within and ask, like we would to our beloved friends, "Hey self, what's up? Why are you doing these things? Is there anything I can do for you?"

Can you imagine if you found out that you had a best friend, that could never leave you, never stop loving you and finds you to be the most irresistable creature on the planet? Well, you do...you have this person already in your life ... right here and right now! Some people call it your guardian angel. I prefer to call it your Higher Self, that part of you that stands and watches and hopes and prays that you'll let them become a part of your everyday life. This part of you can lead you straight to your heart's desires, right through the path of addiction and guide you to your soul.

Addiction Alchemy can help you link up this communication once again. It can help you get all the parts of you talking to each other and you can begin to lead your life with the benefit of your body's infinite wisdom and you will be able to have the awareness and the compassion to hear your inner voice and allow it to come forward.
