In this third blog on tools I'll focus briefly on the key benefits of Meditation for those who are recovering from: drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex, co-dependency etc.This tool is not to be taken lightly! It is an ancient method that can be adapted to almost any belief system, and exists in some form or other in most religions.
I recommend that beginners start with a form called mindfulness meditation. Some of the main benefits are:
* The breath grounds in the NOW! Reducing stress and anxiety levels.
* Acceptance teaches us to experience without judgment.
* We can connect with feelings without being overwhelmed.
* Observing the ebb and flow of our thinking patterns, we learn how our mind works.
I strongly advise you to take time to try out meditation for at least a month before forming any opinion.
Please blog or email me if you want any further advice.
Peace,
Brian
