You know there are many types of addiction out there. The Kabbalists speak to those addictions of things such as: always thinking you are right, believing that others owe you, believing that you are more important than you are, etc.
What I have found in my hypnosis practice, understanding that it is our mind that creates our illusion of what we feel reality is – that is most important in letting go of any addiction.
One needs to know that there is a cause for the addiction – some sensitizing event that caused enough pain (emotionally usually, however with the increase in opiate overdoses, one has to include physical pain as well). There is a purpose to holding on to the addiction, like not having to deal with negative emotions, negative self-talk, etc. And, then one needs to make up one’s mind that the addiction is not really helping them, but slowly killing them. So, one needs a ‘compelling future’ that is more important to them on a visceral strongly felt level, than holding on to the secondary gains of having the addiction (not feeling those feelings or not having those negative thoughts) to let the addiction go. One’s mind is the most powerful tool one has, and it is very sad that kids are not taught how to employ it for their health, well-being, and sense of purpose which brings fulfillment and contentment in life.
