The Essential Self and Conscious Recovery with TJ Woodward

Show Date Feb 19th 2019: Conscious Recovery is a ground breaking and effective approach to viewing and treating addiction that will transform your life. Author and spiritual teacher TJ Woodward is changing the conversation about addiction, because he recognizes that underneath all addictive behavior is an Essential Self that is whole and perfect.

TJ Woodward’s Conscious Recovery MethodTM moves beyond simply treating behaviors and symptoms. It focuses on the underlying root causes that drive destructive patterns, while providing clear steps for letting go of core false beliefs that lead to addictive tendencies. Whether it is spiritual disconnection, unresolved trauma, or toxic shame, these challenges need to addressed in order to achieve true and permanent freedom.

Conscious Recovery offers a pathway toward liberation and will assist you in creating a life filled with love and connection. It explores methods for changing the ways of thinking that keep you stuck in a pattern of hopelessness, so you can come into alignment with an existence overflowing with compassion and purpose.

TJ Woodward calls this the “great remembering” – reclaiming the truth of who and what you essentially are.

The Key Principles of The Conscious Recovery MethodTM are:

•Underneath all addictive behavior is an Essential Self that is whole and perfect

•The addiction itself has never been the “problem” but was a strategy that has lost its effectiveness

•Treating addiction must go beyond addressing symptoms and get down to the underlying root causes of destructive behavior

•The root causes of addictive behavior are Spiritual Disconnection, Unresolved Trauma, and Toxic Shame

•There is a pathway to permanent freedom through the adoption of spiritual practices and principles

Conscious Recovery recognizes that the first steps toward recovery involves creating inner and outer safety so that the addicted person can “unlearn” the negative core false beliefs that have been driving the addiction.

It offers clear steps for bringing unconscious patterns into conscious awareness for healing and a return to wholeness.

The Conscious Recovery Method consists of a 16-week curriculum of interactive groups and individual spiritual counseling sessions. It is a system of care that can be integrated into any existing treatment program and is intended to enhance holistic, integrated care.

This is the culmination of nearly a decade of TJ Woodward offering spiritual care at multiple treatment programs and incapsulates his perspective and approach to treatment and recovery. It has proven to be highly effective.

Dr. Jacob Liberman and the key to optimum health

Dr. Jacob Liberman on Luminous Life: How the Science of Light Unlocks the Art of Living. Despite popular belief and according to Dr. Liberman, presence is not about thinking ahead or trying to be here now. It’s a naturally occurring state that arises when our eyes and mind, activated by light, focus on the same place at the same time. In response to light’s guidance, our eyes begin an intricate dance of aiming, focusing, tracking, and teaming, bringing us to extraordinary states of awareness without effort. Dr. Liberman is the author of two other seminal books on light and vision, and the developer of the first FDA-cleared medical device for vision improvement. His years of clinical research and direct experience have led him to a new philosophy of life that can be implemented by anyone at home, resulting in profound transformation that is rapid, significant, and permanent

The Money Keys with Karen Russo

Presence

sailboat“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.” ~ Buddha

Early in my exploration of spirituality, I learned about “showing up” or being present in my life. Our daily lives are a gift and in order to experience the excitement of that gift, we must be present to receive it. Being stuck in the past with worry and fear over thoughts, such as, ”I should have…” or, “I could have…” or, “Why didn’t I….” rob us of the present moment. The past is history, and as of yet, we are unable to go back and change it. Alternatively, looking for the gift we received from past keeps us focused in the present moment.

The future is not here yet, so worry and fear over what might happen is futile. Think about how many times you have pondered the scenarios of perceived coming attractions. 99 % of the thought and worries never come true. We really have no control of what will happen.

What we have control of is our choices in the present moment. Our intentions guide us toward those choices. In other words, we must be aware of our intentions to make good choices. This is how we shape our destiny without all of the worry and fear of what might happen.

What gifts can you expect to receive from showing up in the present?

Clarity of mind: We experience thoughts and ideas that seem to just flow out of us. We have better focus on the things that are right here, right now.

Positive attitude: When there is little fear, negative thoughts and ideas become non-existent. We show up being the person that we really are.

Ease and Grace: In the presence of others, we will show up in a state of calmness. Fear does not hold us back from our endeavors in the present moment.

Showing up and being present is a practice, and over time, it becomes a habit. Those thought loops that whirl back and forth through our memories and fantasies will come up, but we become aware of how they are distracting us from being present. We then HAVE THE POWER to choose our thoughts.

When it came to practicing all this, what really worked for me was finding that third-person in my mind that could witness my thoughts and throw the flag when I found my mind pondering the past or contemplating the future. Then I focused on my breath, an excellent way to become present. It has been proven that focused breathing through the nose has a great calming effect. This is a great place to start.

Namaste my friends, and pass it on. You won’t get to keep it unless you give it away.

Leggo my EGO

2067b29b-c25a-4d9a-9e4d-0169fda4e90fWhen I began my journey in self exploration, I really resonated with the acronym for EGO, Edging God Out (of my life).  As time progressed, I came to a deeper understanding about EGO.  It’s as though my ego was in charge, like a boss, preventing God from flowing through me. This was a huge revelation for me, a total game changer in how I showed up in the world.

Don’t get me wrong, we need the ego! The ego is the one that makes those phone calls to clients and shows up on time for appointments.  It helps you move forward with your endeavors, dreams, visions and goals. The trick is to get the EGO working for you as an employee instead of you working for it as your boss.

And get this – the Boss EGO can only survive if you are living in the past or the future. It is impossible for it to have control over you in the present moment. Here is how you call the Boss out:

Pay attention to how your Boss EGO works in your life.  Notice when you feel:

  • A need to be right or better than others.
  • Offended by what others say or do.
  • A desire for revenge or retaliation.
  • Negative emotions, such as misery, worry, fear and conflict.

Now start practicing:

  • Detachment from past titles and awards; they do not define your true Self.
  • Listening to others, really listening to them from your heart.
  • Being present with others, refraining from jumping into the conversation with your point of view or answer.

Remember, the bossy EGO wants to keep things as they’ve always been – fearful, doubtful, worried, angry; it doesn’t like change!  Learning to fire the Boss EGO and demote it to your employee is a huge step toward a spiritual transformation.  Once this happens, the doorways to your true Self opens.

Make it a great day, and remember, it’s a choice!
