I call this episode #2 of Season 2:\\xa0 How can the power of Now heal the pain?
Let\\u2019s approach the issue of addiction and what it does to an ordinary family, a loving, typical well-meaning family and see how living in the Now can help heal the pain.
Here\\u2019s what we cover:
- No one in the family is spared the damage that comes from addiction by a member of the family.
- Fear of what may happen in the future is the underlying emotion that drives the inner life of family members. Imagination turns to the disastrous, away from joyful.
- It is possible to regain sanity by the family, starting with an appreciation of the power of now.
- Al Anon is recommended to family members so that they can put the focus back on their own well-being.
- It IS possible to enjoy life whether the addict is in recovery or not.
