Can imagery help with a drug or alcohol addiction?
Guided imagery offers a way to have instant access to our addiction, as well as the many traumas and issues that brought the addiction into our lives in the first place. Once we honor and talk to the addiction in a reasonable way, the addiction itself can give us good advice and direction on how to change our life. The objective is not to destroy the addiction, but to allow it to change. Giving this part of us permission to continue its original objective of protecting and comforting us, will provide new tools to cope with all lifes difficulties and struggles. Giving the addictive part the knowledge that there is nothing we cant handle, transforms our addiction into inner power and strength.
