We all need people!!

 One of the most difficult things for many people but particularly addicts and alcoholics is communication. And spend my experience personally and working with others that addicts tend to lack interpersonal skills. Whether we are innately shy or have not developed those communications due to our isolation. When we get clean and sober, we must communicate to other people how we're feeling, which could be one of the most challenging things to do. For a lot of us, we drank and drugged those feelings away. Sometimes we don't even know what those feelings are; it's hard for us to identify them, never mind communicate them to someone. Also, a lot of times, we lack the confidence to express ourselves to other people.

Through my courses,  groups, and one-on-one, I teach that, like anything else, it takes practice. People may think that it is bizarre that a grown person would need to practice communicating, but if you are someone who hasn't done a lot of it or a lot of healthy communication, you might need to practice that. And I think it's a matter of acquiring some skills that can help simplify this matter and develop exercises with a safe place and time to do these exercises. Now you can practice anywhere with anyone, but I think the confidence level of someone in early recovery prohibits them from perhaps being so bold. That is why I have developed these online classes geared towards individuals who have not acquired the skills or the confidence to connect with people on a deeper level.

I believe that if you want to live a more fulfilled life, if you're going to create a life you don't want to numb from, communicating and expressing how you feel is vital. Having relationships with others is essential. We cannot do this alone! Everybody needs people. The most successful people in the world have a team of people helping them. So although you may feel isolated, unique, and unable to converse with people, it is basically life or death if you are an addict in recovery.

But the good news is it gets easier, and once you start practicing these exercises and developing better communication skills, you can hone them into your unique style, and you will flourish. I have seen it in hundreds of people. It's beautiful and amazing, and you can do it. I've seen people who didn't have faith in themselves but wanted so desperately to get better. And they made a complete 180 with their lives. And you can too. If you would like to learn more about me, what I do, subscribe to my emails, check out my website, watch my videos and then reach out to me.

This is my passion. I want to help people be the best they can be, to live a life second to none. I have struggled with addiction for decades, and I have found a way of life that is so amazing. I had struggled for a long time with the belief that there was just one way to stay sober. I found that not to be true, so I would like to share my experiences and what I've learned with others who also struggle.

Peace Gesture with solid fillI hope you join me on my journey. Remember, let the people that you love know that you love them, send them that text, give them that call, give them a hug. And to always live your life enthusiastically because there really isn't any other way. Until next time stay blessed, peace.

Wasting Time With Micro Timewasters

I t's   funny how we  notice when we waste time on a large scale. We notice that we spend an hour on social media or watch TV for three hours. However, these aren’t the only ways we waste time. We waste time in dozens of ways each day. Many of these time wasters aren’t always obvious, but the time can really add up over the course of a day, a week, or a decade.
