Hint: it’s probably not what you think.
Let me guess… the first words that popped into your head were: God, Buddhist, Yoga, Hippie, Vegan, Pescatarian, religious, spiritual.
None of these words are an accurate depiction of meditation. You don’t have to be a Catholic, Buddhist, Yogi, Hippie/Hipster, Vegan/Vegetarian/Pescatarian, devout Christian, or a spiritual mogul to meditate.
In the midst of our disease, our world is chaos.
Everything we do feels rushed, overwhelming, and debilitating. Everyone we talk to is frustrating, nosy, and again, overwhelming. Every thought that enters our head feels cluttered, irrevocably powerful, and disheveled.
Our world is chaos and we don’t even realize the extent of our pain; what we do feel, however, is the weight of our thoughts: “life is so hard,” “why can’t I just get through one day without feeling like the world is ending,” “how can I keep on living this way forever?”
Then we get help. Whether self-diagnosed or court mandated, we find ourselves in a rehabilitation center for drugs and alcohol, or maybe even dual diagnosis.
We’ve come to a turning point, whether self-made or forced.
Drugs and alcohol have interfered with some aspect of our lives, causing other people or our innermost selves to happen upon a thought: “Is this a problem?”
Whether we immediately retort: “No, that’s probably not true. I can quit today if I wanted to,” or we ponder the thought for a minute, resulting in: “This drink or this drug is necessary for me to get through the rest of this day and I don’t know exactly how I feel about that.”
Whatever the thought process, we’re at this turning point.
