what are we missing?
this is a topic i ponder muchly.
it ties in to addiction
abundance
(or lack thereof)
and
basically our entire experience here on earth as humans.
what are we missing?
addiction:
when we crave something
or
a way of being,
we are trying to fill something that is empty
missing
non-existent.
but what is it?
yea
maybe we are craving chocolate because
we are deficient in magnesium.
or
maybe we crave drama
because, as a child, we were ignored?
basically,
we are looking for something to:
change how we are feeling.
oh
if i just drink this glass of wine (or whiskey)
i’ll be able to ‘deal’ better with my situation
or my life.
yes it does often help.
but also often causes us to feel like shit the next day.
maybe our desire for ‘substances’
really stems from our lack of ability to
deal with the shit that goes on within?
what if we had better tools?
i’m not claiming to have figured this all out
by any means
but seriously
it has been a life long study
noticing the addictions within myself
and
in those around me.
some have more of a grip on the addict-ee
than others.
sure
we have all had ‘bad’ or ‘hard’ stuff ย happen to us thru out our lives
and
certain ‘addictions’
seem to calm the pain
ease the worries
and
help us from being consumed by our past
but the thing we crave is only a temp fix.
the feeling doesn’t go away.
the need for whatever it is we ‘use’ doesn’t magically disappear
(or dis-sa-spear, how my youngest used to say it ๐
until we figure out what we are missing.
sure we can ‘train’ ourselves to not crave
but where does that craving go?
if energy cannot be created OR destroyed
then
where does it go?
does it get funneled in to another
more ‘acceptable’ vice?
like:
i’m addicted to…
judging
(we all are. tho we don’t recognize it)
or
shopping. technology. negative self talk. sex. exercise (yep some are ‘addicts’).
drama. being right. power and control. food. negativity. being the party pooper.
you get the idea.
addiction goes well beyond drugs and alcohol and tobacco.
but they all have their roots in:
what are we missing?
why must we fill this place with something?
which shifts my attention to Abundance.
or
lack thereof.
the state of perceived ‘needing’ something outside of yourself
is a state of lack.
you are basically, on an energetic level,
saying to yourself:
‘i don’t have enough’
this is lack consciousness.
and
Abundance isn’t just about money.
it’s about: love. joy. creativity. peace. happiness.
in ALL areas of your life. work and relationships.
what if:
Abundance Consciousness is really the absence of addiction,
the absence of lack.
the presence of All That Is
and
Enough ๐
i have recorded a guided meditation
just for you ๐
for your evolutionary pleasure.
enjoy and share and practice.
and
may you all Be Whole.
much love <3
