Addictive Personalities: How do we start to work with our addictions

Cat Waves: Welcome to the World of Cat Kabira

A topic of interest that has come up lately, both personally and well with my clients is:

‘What does it really mean to have an addictive personality?’

There’s a lot of judgement about being addictive and how I’d love to break down for you is to consider if what you are doing repeatedly is meeting your what you really need.

An unhealthy addiction is when we’re reaching for something on a continual basis that doesn’t actually meet our needs; and also creates havoc, chaos and trauma in our life.

When we are acting in a repetitive way there can be the belief in our minds that this time it will actually get better or different. Classic example is for people who are binge eaters, their valid need is for comfort and feeling safe. So when they are reaching for a particular type of food in hopes that it will create soothing but it will actually never satisfy the true need.

Watch my video where I talk about the different types of addictions, what do they really mean and how to handle them.

As part of my work that I do with my clients, both with eating disorders and addictive personalities, is how to start feeling in a way that they can handle it; which for most of us is a game changer to realize that “I can handle life.”

Just like a wave, there are moments of expansion and contraction in our lives and it’s often helpful to realize that you can tolerate what is happening instead of trying to hide, change or numb out the feeling.

Learning how to understand your energy field will help you determine what you really need, help you handle challenges and simply allow you to enjoy life more fully.

Just like learning how to play the piano, learning how to work with your energy field is a skill that you need to develop. I offer private energy healing sessions and variety of online and in-person courses that will help you how to work with your energy in a whole different way.

I invite you today to stay present with yourself, be more aware and find where you can sparkle!
