Today is going to be a more lighthearted day. I want to talk about self improvement. We have a lot of improving to do in this lifetime. There is no time like the now to change your habits. Believe it or not, I was an alcoholic for 3 years. Yes, even me. I quit 2 months ago and Im never going back. Now 3 years is a long time actually to quit because its now an ingrained habit. I did it though with the strength of God and a program called LionRock which is group and individual counseling every week. If I can do it, then so can you. Being addicted to something robs you of your life and takes away your pure joy that you have living deep inside you. I would say that if you are addicted, seek help. I feel so much better and free and I even started blogging again because my head is clear. My boyfriend drinks everyday too, that’s what attracted us to each other, but now that I don’t drink, I can only pray that he quits too. It’s the freedom that you get when you quit any addiction. Addiction holds you down in chains and it seems like you cant get out, but you can. With the grace of God, everything is possible. Now that Im free Im going to focus on my healing business and my blogs. This makes me really happy and does bring pure joy into my life. The other thing that is so much clearer is my communication with God and the spiritual world. I can hear angels and God and Jesus and higher selves much more clearly. Its amazing. I thought alcohol was bringing me joy, but it really wasn’t. It’s a fake kind of joy. Nothing, I mean nothing can stop you if you have God in your life. I suggest turning to God for the answers instead of yourself or even other people right now. Sometimes when you get advice from others, its not the best for you even though it might seem like it. There is no times like now to rid yourself of addiction. There are so many types of addictions its unbelievable. Anything from food to self-sabotage, like anorexia. No one starts out wanting to be addicted, it just sort of happens over time. At first, it gives you a great high but after time that high sort of disappears. Now you are doing it out of habit and its killing your soul. We are not meant to be in chains, but God wants us free to live our life happily. You may say, Lauren, Ive had this addiction for years now, how can I just ask God and then quit. God is powerful, more that you think. He is the one that helped me get out of the vicious cycle that I was in. You don’t realize how bad it was until you get out. No one likes to be held down, but that is precisely what you are doing. I could go on and on about this, but will write more at another time. For now, I wish you the best in your journey and I am praying for your freedom that is well deserved.
