poly life vs. sexual addiction.

This is a page for people who might be struggling with their feelings about sex and love. Some people think that sex is the same as love, but we know that's not true. Love is a deep and complex emotion that can be shared with many people. Sex is one way to express love, but it's not the only way. We are poly, which means we have multiple loving relationships at the same time. We are not addicted to sex; we are just open to different forms of love. This page is here to help you understand yourself better, and to offer you support and guidance if you need it. You are not alone, and you are not broken. You are just different, and that's okay.

Believing that group therapy can help the rehabilitation process in our community is what motivates us to offer this service to our members. We understand that recovery is not a linear or individual journey, but a dynamic and collective one. By sharing experiences, insights, challenges and successes with others who are facing similar issues, our members can benefit from the support, feedback and encouragement of their peers. Group therapy also provides an opportunity to learn new skills, practice healthy coping strategies, and develop a sense of belonging and hope. We want to create a safe and respectful environment for everyone to participate and grow.

We have established a sexual addiction group for people who struggle with compulsive sexual behaviors and need a supportive environment. Sexual addiction is different from polyamory, and we want you to understand that difference, so we offer this group to help you. If you often think "I don't have an addiction, I just can't maintain relationships." You might benefit from our services.

We are a group of people who have struggled with sex addiction and have found a way to overcome it. We use the principles and steps of Sex Addicts Anonymous (SAA) to help us heal our minds, bodies and spirits. We also participate in an outreach program that aims to share our experience, strength and hope with others who are still suffering from this compulsive behavior. Our goal is to help them make an informed decision about how they want to live their lives after they have recovered/ survived from their addiction and learned to respect themselves and others.

RULES TO EVEN GET IN TOUCH WITH US.

RULES EVEN TO START

1) Anything said in group stays in group. we are here for you and pass judgement.

2) 0 tolerance for any who openly defy the rules of the house,

for the people talk to the Gods for help. Our saying for the will be ... " This prayer is from the AA organization with some tweaking and There are other group like ours that are trying to help others with their addictions. People like us as you know we can and do become addicted to the touch of others when we do not know who we are. After I found myself and where I belong, I knew we had to help others like us not judging or condemning others for what has happened just helping them find their place in the world. A lot of times this Montra can be used to help bring our minds into focus and finding a higher mean into ourselves in order to improve selves to improve our community. Please remember this is only the beginning of your new life and we will try to help you through the rough stuff starting with this mantra. We here believe that just because you sleep with more than one does not mean that you are an addict, it is when people involuntarily become hurt by your action with things like std's/ sti's or unwanted damages to others through your actions. If you love more than one it is not illegal but if you merry more than one. It is in the eyes of the court of United States. There are many communities like ours but as you can see, we are not all out in the open about who we are. We are here to help you in your hour of need...

************************************************************************************************************************

here is our version of the serenity prayer.

May my Deities/higher power grant me the serenity,
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.

so, mote it be.

************************************************************************************************************************

Christian version: (this version is used all over for different versions of life.)

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time,
Enjoying one moment at a time,
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace,
Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it,
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will,
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next.
Amen.

The mantra can be seen as a way of coping with stress, uncertainty and frustration. It can also be a source of inspiration, hope and gratitude. By acknowledging the limits of human control and the need for divine guidance, the prayer can help one to surrender to a higher power and find peace in any situation. The mantra can also encourage one to take action where possible, and to seek knowledge and understanding where it is needed.

Recognizing an addiction can be challenging, as it often develops gradually and can be influenced by many factors. However, there are some common signs that may indicate an addiction is present. These include a persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down or control substance use, spending a lot of time obtaining, using, or recovering from the substance, and continuing use despite having persistent or recurrent social or interpersonal problems caused or exacerbated by the effects of the substance. Additionally, important social, occupational, or recreational activities may be given up or reduced because of substance use. If you suspect you or someone you know has an addiction, it is crucial to seek professional help.

sexual addiction

This is a topic even my computer blushes and makes it hard to my work and talk to others so I will tell you a story for you.

We as humans have been taught that desire is a poison in the soul and sex is dirty for people to wanting to touch one another. I once knew a man from Nantucket ... oh yah wrong story. This young man did not know any better of himself or of what was to come. here are the signs that is seen from others that you have an addiction.

TOP TEN SEXUAL SIGNS I HAVE SEEN

1) The constant chatter of sex (every thought is based on sex, or porn.)

2) lack of control of the body (there is no such word called no.) Lack of body control can be a symptom of various medical conditions or situations. It may manifest as an inability to coordinate movements, difficulty with balance, or involuntary actions. Causes can range from neurological disorders, such as Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis, to the effects of medication or substance use. It's important for individuals experiencing such symptoms to seek medical advice for proper diagnosis and treatment.

3) possible criminal record for sex. people who have lack of control usually get charged with rape or csc of any sort from csc first through the fourth degrees of actual sexual issues and misunderstood actions such a urinating in the woods can get you a csc charge in Michigan now, then you have to register for the rest of your life as a csc offender.

4)possible sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections that are passed from one person to another through sexual contact. They can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites. STDs can have a range of symptoms, or none at all, making them difficult to diagnose without proper testing. It's important to practice safe sex and get regular health check-ups to prevent and treat STDs.

5) skipping work, appointments, and other functions just to have sex

6) you lose jobs because of sexual behavior example two hours late from lunch because you lost track of time.

7) Spousal issues such as broken bones, bullet holes on clothing and even skin because you had sex with his wife.

8) frequent visits to the hospital to remove objects because of a sexual curiosity.

9) digging up the body just to have sex... (Necrophiliac) counts in my book as an addiction not a kink.

10) porn is the most basic of the addictions whether it be on computer, phone or books...

11) ** BONUS SIGN** THE DESIRE OF PUSHING THE LIMITS ON GETTING CAUGHT (public actions or displayed sexual behavior.)

These are just examples I am sure you have your own Ideas of sexual addiction, and there are groups in Traverse City that can help you outside of the correctional facilities, and we are here for you and your self.

One of the things I have learned after four wives and many mistresses is that I had an addiction and went to sex addict anonymous while meeting my fifth with when I was turning my life around. She taught me about polyamorous lifestyles and my world changed. The word I am looking I am looking for is conformed.

My new life has granted me honor, trust, honesty, and a faithful wife who understands me. because she is the one who taught me what it is to have peace in who I am. I am a truthful husband and too each of my other females in our polyfadelital circle. Yes, there are other forms of polyamory that addicts can be in a bad place such as swinging/ solo poly lifestyles. We can definitely help and guide you and others to a way of life that is more exceptional to who you are. The gods did not set you up as another kind of human, you just need to be taught who we are and how we can help you. Your addiction does not need to kill you or cause you more harm. This is why we invite you to join us.

monogamy says you are an addict vs. polyamory on the other hand it is just learning your place, conforming to a new way of life. There are rules to everything in life and they are expected to be agreed to and followed by everyone in your personal circle and we will all honor you and your circles as you will honor ours.

We had mentors before us, and you have mentors before you. That is why we are here for you.

Polyamory is multiple loves, NOT multiple SEX partners!!!!!!!!

These are the rules that are to be used in any of our circles, they are not to be broken. We understand that within your family/circle you may have different rules.

1) 18 is the age limit for who it is acceptable to date, marry, or have sexual relations with.

2) There will be no renting, selling, or loaning of spouses or children for sexual purposes.

3) No is no, and it will be respected when it is said...just as safe words will be.

4) Understand there is a difference between Swinging, Solo poly, Polyamorous, Polyfidelital, Monogamy, Polygamy, and Polyandry. Each should be respected and understood between everyone and their circle. other terms you may like Primary, & nesting(partners), higher arche, & equality-based life, A-sexual, straight, bi-sexual, pan sexual, gay, lesbian, and the list goes on.

5) Remember that honesty, openness, and clear communication should be part of the relationship with all of your partners. It is important to be totally honest about the love you have for everyone in your circle.

6) Cheating is not accepted, and it is looked down upon. (We do have a trial period for retraining the cheater if your partners accept with the love they have for you. One chance is given to get help, anything after that we have to wonder if it is not just soul poisoning from the poison of desire.) cheating is a felony offence... what we do is not cheating. That is why infidelity in Michigan has not been convicted since 1976 during the free love time of life.

7) When you are in a polyamorous relationship in this community the terms wife or husband are for governmental papers. All others are called close friends/partners to the outside world. (It is illegal to marry more than one person. You commit to things on a daily basis, we just have a certificate for it.)

8) Sex addicts need to be true to themselves and their friends. This is so they get the support they need. It does not mean that rape is accepted, no matter what excuse you may have. We want to help you work through your issues not add to them.

9) when you figure out who you are and your spirit has been freed, and you finally feal complete we ask that you leave a comment, rating, and even show others who we are.

10) We do not disrespect others because of their sexual practices one person is no better than the other. (The terms ho, slut, tramp, or Scank is all unaccepted) you lower your- self to a monogamous person's point of view, and we will not tolerate you cutting yourself down like that. Solo poly is being single. LOOK UP THE POLYAMOROUS TERMS UP!!!!!

SAFETY FIRST OVER ALL... NO IS NO!!!!!!!!

rape is uncalled for in this environment, all life will be honored & respected in our circles of life. If you think there are monogamous stuff shirts, please understand you may view us just as bad as them, but we live with a certain pride and dignity those people will never have. You may think we have to many rules but understand that those ten are what we have that you do not cross, and the rest is made by your circle not us.

Any other rules guidelines or underlined statements are an agreement between you and your local community the Main office may not know what it is you are talking about so please elaborate on each item when you bring your thoughts to us so we may understand. A general train of thought if you want all your agreements to be set in stone for your community the main office needs a copy of the agreement, and we can be mediators for your cause. for example, please fill out the coven's prenuptial and that should cover most of your thoughts. We are not here to get you divorced, instead we are trying to save what unity you may still have and build on that if we can. We are with you ... till death do you part, no pun in- tended. We are here to advise, council and teach along with ceremony, ALL CORRECTION OUTSIDE OF THESE TEN RULES YOUR LOCAL COVEN TAKES CARE OF IT TO THEIR PREFERENCES AND THEY CONTROL THEIR OWN AREAS. All outside influences should never interfere in coven business no matter the circle you are in. (A) unless invited with written approval (B) The person is excepted by all parties involved.

when you get the main office involved in your politics, please understand we are polyfadelital biased point of view which may not agree with what you are saying or suggesting so we may not do or give you what you want.

We choose to have two to three small families living with us at any given time giving aid to handy-cap, homeless, or any other needs our community may have. We love our community. We do not police the bedrooms for illegal actions (sex) unless it is a minor of course. Everyone capable cooks that can cook. chores are shared so there are no wifely duties, how can the judicial system punish us for living a great life and helping others to live theirs. Why can't monogamous people and other troublemakers just leave our people alone. *** I personally resent the fact that you assume I cannot handle my own house and I have to eyeball every room every day. I AM NOT THE POLICE; I AM A HIGH PRIEST!!!***

We do not believe in divorce, if you choose to separate and divide one another (divorce is a hate for another to the point of death without using excuses.) why not just get another partner even the government excepts separation. Some of us believe in till death do you part, with our lifestyle why can we not support each other. We also take care of our own business in house. Cheating can be taken care of so many ways and it can be cured.

Cheating constitutes lying, hiding, disseat, and sometimes even theft. Each of these items are hard to stomach. The terms " OH, she does not need to know my business she is only my wife or girlfriends. They do not need to know that my sexual habits or what I do with other people. I am a grown person." tells me the person has been doing it a long time and they will not stop willingly. They will need more direct attention to correct the issue. Even psychological crews have issues without spiritual backing of the old gods like Tyr, Oden, and Eir. This is why so many faiths complain about us, because they push our people into that category not realizing that we are not like them. We are transparent, honest, loyal, we communicate with our loved one and to take from our own is so low even stepping in poop a luxury. you would not be fit to sit a block from us without feeling dirty and needing to scrub souls clean. We need to try to help the downtrodden but sometimes all you can do is try even if you are their last chance. (YES, I WILL BLACK BALL SOMEONE IF IT CAN NOT BE CURED & NONE OF OUR CIRCLE WILL EVER BE NEAR YOU AGAIN.) The term I am looking for is shunning. The Norse use it as well as the Amish they say you're dead to them and then all the go the other way. When a convicted child molester comes around, what do you do with you and your children when they come near you. with that being said please Understand that we are human. Even monogamous people do it with poly folks, and Christian do it to their satanist. Blame is a human taught behavior.

Doing the work we do here it helps everyone to feel their own faith without compromise to body, mind, and soul. We are not just a coven we are a community, and we all need to feel safe, pure, and understood.

Humans are no longer private as long as we have electronics. Yes, the computer is bad for porn but isn't bar bad with booze of sorts. the government stops the porn in jail yet when they get out the computer still get the porn and the addiction continues yet the computers are not banned like booze, weed, guns and other thing added to prohibition. We have to learn how to deal with sexual desire in a totally different way instead of taking it away, we are trying to be reprogramming or giving you another way to think about the needs of each person.

***********************************************************************************************************************************

the reason we are doing this program.

These are the type of people we are trying to help, because when his poly life was over it made this personality come out.

project # one:

To make you understand I knew a man that lived a polyamorous life before his children came of age to remember a whole lot "for average children" then the parents said they went monogamous, yet the father kept is porn magazines, movies etc... now fast forward to 23 years the father went hunting with other folks and he was in the R.V. with his door cracked. It was noticed that he was touching himself while watching a couple of people having sex in a mirror unknowingly being watched. fast forward again a year before the man died, he was at the kitchen table on the computer checking out porn at x-mass party with children around. I believe the day he died I will bet he was checking porn just before he died. "Doing what he liked to do."

(BOTH PARENTS TILL THE TIME OF DEATH PROCLAIMED MONOGAMY, both parents stayed together with each other for the family till death do you part.)

A woman had many boyfriends while being married, been molested since being a child from her own father, after 9 years of this tried proclaiming monogamy after almost losing her husband.

project# two:

when young or middle-aged men of convicted crimes, old men and their wives because of child molestation going on in the home(This one is mainly for the support of the spouse of the molester because, the criminal will be in jail/ prison or dead.), or middle-aged men leaving their wives because they are board, their wives won't put out, they found a mistress, or she took him for his money, she slept around on him, or she stopped having sex with him. These different Canarreos have all come to me for help, and we are trying to help keep the family together, and we are hoping if and when you join the local programs you will get something out of it. We are more than happy to give you the support you need or possibly may be able to use.

project # three:

the stuff shirts that think their poo smells good in public yet when they are doing sexual degenerate things to themselves, other people, or to animals so that no one else will suspect them for what they are doing except their personal doctors or conciliation. Unsuspecting men being taken for lots and lots of money over a quick I love you, and a blurry booby shot.

project # four:

for those people who are suicidal because the felt the Trama from monogamous relationships gone bad because they did not know what polyamory was, or from the thoughts of a cheater.

twelve Step for Addiction

Sobriety

First things first there are questions you need to ask yourself.

Who am I before I do my twelve-step program (A) bound to my addiction?
What am I looking for? (A) freedom from my addiction
Where can it happen? (A) anywhere you feel protected and safe.
Why do I need this problem? (A) understanding it is not a problem, but a resolve to a problem.
What is the long game? (A) Your sobriety from any addiction so you can live a longer & safer life for yourself and the ones you truly love.

None of this is to be taken lightly, and when the time is right you will know what to do. We implore you to write down the questions, and answers as they come to you so you can see it for later.

From beginning to end we will be talking about addiction on a lot of levels that you may or may not be of interest to you but implore you to continue to reading for optimal use of our writings. And where we found our inspiration is in the books with the authors name and copy write dates. These people and our knowledge from the outside world making great teacher, instructors, and inspirations for our education.

We believe that that this system can and will help you to heal in your mind and spirit. These writings are made from love and a need to heal others after kicking our own demons around.

Addictions: we are going to be teaching you a twelve-step program that has been proven in multiple communities and saved so many people from the demons that Torment them.

Twelve step programs for pagans for almost everything in our lives.

admitted you were powerless…
believing a power greater than ourselves to restore the sanity in life.
Make a decision to turn over your lives & will to your Deity of choice.
Make a fearless look into the mirror and do an inventory of who you are and what you do.
Admit to the issue at hand to the threefold in your life your gods, community, and yourself.
Entirely ready to conform and transform into what our divine power/Deity decides that makes us whole. Removing the flaws in our lives
Ask the divine deity to transform you and change our short coming.
Make a list of the people you may have disturbed or harmed in any way, so you may make a mend with your victim. (Confront them only if it harms none… emotionally, mentally, or physicals.)
Make a mend with all that is possible.
Continue to make a list of your inventory and what has done wrong and promptly correct the issue.
Talk to and stand with your chosen deity through prayer, meditation, and crafts that you do. Keeping your deity in mind all the time wwmdd (WHAT WOULD MY DEITY DO?)
Tell other people about the twelve-step plan and how it worked for you.

**This is as program that is trusted, and this is part of the program we are going to use was quoted by Druids because, they believed in the laws of three and taught in that fashion as well.

You are who you think you are (right you are seeing you done wrong… Addictions). B) You are who others think you are (you are the jerk that hurt them.)
C) You are who you really are (right now you are a recovering addict and are learning a new way of life.)

We, being pagan/ heathen, do not have ‘one god’ to help us through our troubles, we have a whole team of Gods. Our system of rules was set in place for ages ago with variations of it through time. For example, wiccans and other faiths use karma or a three- or seven- fold rule some even go by the rule of ten. We must find within ourselves the strength to confront and resolve our issues to the best of our abilities.

The wiccans have the three powers to add to our lessons:

The power to will, (Accept what is happening, when you realize what happened to you)

The power to dare, (Follow through, explore, and enjoy your successful days moving toward your goals.)

The power to keep silent. (We do not talk about anyone else who is in this program.)

This is where is a step toward the Nine nobles, when you are working toward and the six-fold goals dealing with the gods and learning more about what each of the gods and goddesses that you work with. The Nine nobles and six- fold goal is a Norse system that as found in in an English library later after the Christian invasion, but it has its merits for recovery, because and there is proof it makes you think about more than just yourself and puts a goal into place for you to work on through your life. The Islams have nine nobles just like the Norse People, so you see these views are global.

Norse Sixfold goal:

Right: ruled by Tyr standing for law and judgement -the rule of rationality and being enlightened to see our world rationally and clearly Wisdom is ruled by Odin – this is the memory of the things that have been done and how you got through it. That is called wisdom. Might: ruled by Thor this is a two -fold goal of victory and defense. Harvest: ruled by the Vanir they are in control the cycles of life from fruits of growth to economics Frith “peace”: Freyr and Freyja controls the state of willingness and direction for growth Love: Frey and Freya (Lord and Lady) control of all forms of love & exoticism **none of them state monogamy is required understanding the goal is not sex but love.**

Nine noble virtues of the Norse people:

Courage- I face my fears and defends my family, & friend from all dangers
Discipline- do what is necessary, and right without bribe or threat.
Fidelity- I am true to our kindred, family, and friends and to those I pledge my services.
Honor- I stand by my oath by honoring my ancestors keeping my name pure among the kindred.
Hospitality- I share food, drink, and hearth friends’ family, and the weary traveler at my door.
Industriousness- hold joy in labor and not holding me back from what I pledge to do.
Perseverance-I press forward at all odds to finish my goals,
self-reliance- I learn skills and grow so that so I am no burden to others.
Trust- I seek the truth even hard truths, I speak the truth or stand in silence and defend from those who do not honor it.

We are going to the twelve levels to help you understand each of their meanings and how we will be using in this program.

This is the point in time that you need to find and gather your support group around you, to support you in your darkest hours because at this given time this is the hardest thing in life you will ever find. you are your own worst enemy, and your trials are to be faced head on… you will be put in a box of proverbial box of mirrors so this way you can see your truest self to repair and support the person you are building up from the inside out. (Mirror, mirror on the wall… here my spirit. help me see and help my call.) This is a mantra I use to help me through to tuff times. I repeat it as many times as I need it. Mirror, mirror is a set of triggers to open my subconscious mind. It is like instant alfa only with the mirrors.

Your support team should be the people you trust with as much as you can and there are groups online and in private circles. If you need religious or human support, contact us at houseofpaganprideinc.org or call (231) 492-8217. Please remember we do not talk about the others we know are in our groups, and that is a MAJOR consideration for everyone involved.

Step number one:

This quote is quite common among people I know “I am not a sinner, I am heathen.” I am sorry to say when you are an addict it does not matter what faith you are you have a monkey, and you need to get rid of it. We are here to help you rid you of your monkey. Just open and admit to yourself and the universe… “I am out of control and broken from “name it, my chosen addiction”. I need help to bring me back to center.” You need to hear it come from your mouth/ body, so it become real to you, not just a set of words you are reading you need to hear it….

Admit to yourself that you have a problem, and you need help, because life got out of control. You are not full of worthlessness or so useless. You need to understand, and we are willing to show you this new way of life. You are important to us, now we need you to get you to that point and get you to see what we see in your spirit. Please, understand that you may fall or stumble during your path through your life’s goals with addictions. We can help you back up and dust you off, you are worthy of our help.

Understand that you need to hit bottom to change completely. Everyone has their own bottoms and breaking points, and each person has their own way of dealing with things, but at this given time they need our help to get to where you desire to be in your lives.

Judgement from out siders (and it does happen) breaking you down just as quick you built your spirit up. This is where step two comes to play when you are done. (Choosing a deity to talk to & chosen a Deity and making a repour.)

**Realize at this stage of the game there is a lot of neigh sayers, this is the time when you know who your true friends are & you are trying hard to believe with all that you have. Master Yoda said it best do or do not, there is no try. We interpret that to say” hey. I did it and it went well, or I failed when I did it, or I did nothing at all.” In that statement there was no try.

Step number two:

Finding the deity that you choose whether it be nationality based, or just religiously based on a faith that you were taught growing up from your parents and or guardians. Knowing you have a higher power or deity with in you. For those who believe in the higher power learn how to feel the energy with in you and what is around you. All kidding aside Star Wars said it best “feel the force.”

There are people who also believe in the ancestors, and how they look after us with their wisdom from the centuries. the ancestors have built up knowledge for us to gain from them and, becoming good people and great spiritual guides for our offspring. Some even believe in just the higher power that is more than themselves and “may the force be with you as well.”

This is no easy feat because when you choose this, you will be devoting your life to serving that quality of being. For example: If you are desiring to stop wine, woman, and song Baccus, pan, or any of the party Gods is probably not a good.

Step number three:

Deciding to turn over your entire lives to the deity of choice. This is not to be taken lightly. When you are trying to break free from an addiction the choice of Gods is important for obvious reasons such as using Loki, Baccus, pan, lucifer or any of the other party, sex, or mischief Gods and Goddesses. That is just asking to go back to the beginning of your training in your new life making everything you are trying to do is no good for your life. Going to the dark side is what we are trying stay away from.

Step number four:

this is a review of your goals, people you are around. The people you are around effects who you are, and how you behave in public and in private. Your deity will give you a hand with what is going on with you. This step is important for your growth. Your goal should be to get free of your addiction and at this given time you are excepting who you are. We are doing an investment in our selves, so we need to do inventory, so we know what is coming and going into your life. What did it cost you and was it worth the cost of being with that person or doing that one goal. After this you will know what to invest in.

this where you find the flaws in your character so you can fix the issue.

Step number five:

Admitting to your Deity, humans, and self what exactly what went wrong. It is required that you tell at least one human, and deity of choice baring your very soul. Showing yourself exactly what went wrong and how you can repair it. When you voice it out loud to others to yourself, and your deity.

Step number six:

This is when the change begins, after basics are done you are making that choice to be free from the addiction. You have in the first five step (1) Identified you have an issue, and you need help (2) you have identified your deity or higher power (3) Thinking of someone or something more than yourself (4) Doing the inventory of self (5) Admitting to the world, to yourself and your deity what you are doing. (The power to will) (6) This is where you are ready to conform, and transformation complete with your deity and yourself. A lot of this process is meditation to visually see the end person you are supposed to become with help from your deity and your care circle. Currently, you are supposed to be looking for people and energies that are like your new energy. (You will find different friends that you match with.) Not to say you cannot have old friends. I will say you will grow to a different level than your old friends and it will never be the same.

Step number seven:

This is the shortest of all twelve and yet it is just as important as the rest of the twelve steps. This where you humble yourself to your deity/ higher power imploring to assist in the process of transformation. Looking for divine assistances in your goals.

Step number eight:

One of the most important things you can do, but this step is almost as hard, if not harder than step number one. Make a list of people that you have harmed wherever possible and willing to rectify the issues you have with these people.

Step number nine:

The list of people you have harmed over the years to safely remedy making a mend of the issues that were caused by your actions. When you correct the wrong that was done too others (safely). If there is any chance of somebody being harmed than remember that you need to stay away from them. Karma happens to us all and one form or another we will be corrected for your actions.

Step number ten:

Continue to make your list and promptly correct the issues that were made by you.

Step number eleven:

This step is the most dangerous of all of them. You may need to do this section with doctors’ guidance or approval to avoid negative reactions, like with drawl or even death. Sometimes you must do the hard things to get a better life. Fasting is what we are suggesting for a set number of days to reset the human body. To clear the human body of cigarettes it takes three days to start after twenty-four hours the body starts to heal itself. Caffeine after twenty-four hours you start with drawls like migraine headache. So on and so forth with any addictions. During this time meditation is great for concentration if you are a beginner, it may be a little harder to do. This is a good time to clear your mind and purify your spirit of the poison in your body by doing deep breathing and working on all the other tasks daily.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR EVERYONE WHO USES THIS PROGRAM: The one thing you need to remember YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU DRINK LOTS OF WATER no matter what addiction you have. Water not only purify the body inside and out; it hydrates and energizes your body/ spirit as well. If you are allowed to use incents and they work for the sense of smell is very strong when you use incents and when you meditate. And candles will be helping your focus. Wiccan can see all the possibilities as a time for using spell work as well. YOU NEED TO CONCINTRATE ON REMOVING THE ADDICTION, NOT CORRUPTING THE TASK WITH ANY THING ELSE.

This step is just as important as all the rest because it is not just about lip work. you are showing commitment to your spiritual self, all the energies around you. Most people from multicultural backgrounds, with Christian influence controlling who we are and needing to hide our true nature. The word Prayer is related to Christian rituals and making a bad taste in your mouth about the word prayer. Please, remember that it is just a word to communicate to your deity This is the time to meditate (searching for the inner energy), & praying (talking to your gods no matter who they are.) This is a good time to Decide to stay clean from your addiction.

How to get started to get the most of this course:

Meditation: is the roadway to the where you are going giving the energy to the to the universe and the introduction to the Gods so you may talk with them. Can start with music, silence, candles, water etc. (this is a way to clear your mind and opening you to your spirit to what needs to happen in your recovery.)

Prayer: It a communication between you and your friend/mentor (Deity). This is the middle of the path from where you to where you want to be. it is a spiritual telephone call to your deity.

Remember that that Each spirit has its own energy, and you need to focus on the energy that can move you in the path you feel you need to be. You know if you when you are wrong when.

Karma / holy spirit/ laws of 3-7 come into play. Whatever you choose to call your correctional justice.

Deity: is the god of your choice or what you have been taught to believe in. This is the unseen the energy that you are talking to when nobody else is around. They are creatures of energy, just like aura around you most people cannot see it, but it is there because we are all creatures of energy. This is the end of your trail where you are supposed to get nirvana. The place or person that you go to for your inner peace, and freedom of soul.

** Understand that there are all kinds of meditation techniques you can be taught to use to further all your endeavors for now and in the future.

This step is when you are becoming truly one with your chosen spirit / energy so that it may be the way you get past your addiction and walk with freedom. This is what we do every day to improve our chance at get it (nirvana: spiritual enlightenment) what other people use as the advisors of the spirit. This is your completion of connection.

Remember that when you have an addiction it consumes your whole life. From the time you wake up to the time you go to bed your addiction controls it all. The first step is admitting you have a problem than change it.

Step number twelve:

This step is when you are reflecting, and you are validated within yourself, and your spirit feels alive. You feel the freedom from your addiction just remember. You are so enthused to go out and talk to the world about your freedom and how you received it through your studies and worship with your “new” Deity / Deities. Having a very spiritual awakening and living this way every day.

You need to continue repairing all the wrong that has been done to anyone else safely. Each and every day you need to try to make your world addiction free. This life change will be awesome, and you will want to tell everyone you meet.

You will end up changing friends, “Not that you have too, but it will happen” If this is done correctly your deities will not allow you to stay in the path you are currently are going down to poison your soul.

This is a time to remind you as time goes on and the feeling you need to look back at and enjoy this time. Life is hard and the dirt will fly making the purity of this time clouded over making you blind from your path. To indulge in those acts can set you back to the beginning. Shoot if you go long enough on that path you may lose levels of Lazlo’s Pyramid of life. You could even be put back to the base of the pyramid. Those are hard changes and will be vital to your own survival. Please, Remember the twelve steps.

Reflect to when you thought the Christian church was pure and good, before you knew about life. my studies if you read it all together this like when you go in front of a church bow down or in a humbled form to pray for forgiveness and ask your deity to reside within you to guide you while you than going out unto the world and teaching the gospel of the twelve step to breaking an addiction.

When you said, “I come to the circle in perfect love and perfect trust.” (You have chosen and committed to your chosen Deity) so be careful to whom you pledge elegance. You need to be committed to your choice in life, for an addiction free path giving your spirit, and body the freedom it needs.

These people are here to help you no matter the faith you are in. They all know your pain and can relate to it. They committed as well as you and to hurt one of your own is cutting your own throat. You are responsible for your own spirit, body and the care for your future, but these people may be able to help you get where you need to be.
