Back to WorkshopsThe MISSION of ADDICTION
Deepening our Understanding
“Until we are willing to look at the deeper body, soul, spiritual aspects of addiction in an open and objective way, we as a society, will all remain its victims and continue to seek escape routes.”
In this workshop we will explore...
-
Addiction as a barometer of societies changes and needs.
-
Why addiction is an increasing issue.
-
Drugs and their relationship to threshold, initiation experiences.
-
Each individual drug and their differing effect on our deeper selves.
-
The unconscious quest for self-knowledge.
-
Why certain people are attracted to certain drugs.
-
Why does the issue of drugs usually begin shortly after puberty?
-
Why do we fear drugs?
-
What can we do when we are told that “Everything is under control”?
-
The interest- exposure- experimentation- recreation- abuse- addiction, continuum.
-
The response of the school and the parents, and ways in which they can work together.
