RECOVERY MEDICINE WHEEL

INTRODUCTION TO RECOVERY MEDICINE WHEEL

Addiction Alchemy is an addiction recovery pathworking system that was founded upon Native American Medicine Wheel and Kabalistic teachings and technologies. Addiction Alchemy can help you decode and transform your life with once secret, ancient healing modalities and sacred ceremony. By tapping into the energy, power and magic of the Medicine Wheel, Tree of Life, Meditation, Archetypes, Nature and the Elements, Animals, Energy Healing and much more you can uncover insight and information that was previously hidden and unknown to you in a relatively short period of time. Using the Medicine Wheel blueprint, Addiction Alchemy helps make personal growth work and healing engaging, intriguing, imaginative, adventuresome and even fun!

Addiction Alchemy uses the sacred path of the Medicine Wheel and the Tree of Life to remind you not to get stuck and to stay on track as you remember why you are here. In a sense the schematic of the wheel provides a multi-dimensional space and time continuum to energetically assist you to keep moving through and processing your "stuff" so that you don't get bogged down in pain and misery. Deciphering and discovering who you really are will fill you with mystery and awe as the synchronicities of life reveal all. Addiction Alchemy will help you demystify, unleash and harness the power of Universal Law as you are initiated into the School of Life and find out who you really are.

ABOUT THE ADDICTION ALCHEMY EXPERIENCE

Addiction Alchemy can help you to restore the function of your Will Center. In order to do this it is important to understand that your center, your inner flame, which is at your core and encompasses ALL of you is already complete. You are not flawed. Your connection to your core has simply been cut off or suppressed for one or more of all the various reasons that our thoughts, feelings and beliefs can distort our ability to connect with our power center and consequently robbing us of our ability to be truly free. Re-establishing that connection is our main goal.

SACRED CIRCLE CEREMONY

Addiction Alchemy is conducted within a sacred circle in a private gathering. There are 5 gatherings in an Addiction Alchemy journey, which meets approximately every 2 months, with the entire trip around the wheel taking about 10 months. You will be traveling with the same people from beginning to end of the entire 10 month journey. This is your clan (although you may never consciously know more about each other than your first name). Each gathering honors the four cardinal directions on the Medicine Wheel compass (East, South, West, North) and culminates to a point of completion at the Center of the wheel. Within each direction we focus on the different aspect of yourself which is heralded by the direction and do exercises, rituals and practices which help you develop your own keys to connecting with the energies of that direction. Other components of the program are journaling, guided meditations, music, practical intuition, chakra attunement and sacred rituals and ceremonies, along with any spontaneous guidance which we remain open to. The rest of the journey is conducted in the "white space" outside the circle as you take the energies with you and venture out into the School of Life.

ADDICTION ALCHEMY HONORS ANONYMITY

Your full name, nor the nature of your addiction need never be revealed. There is no getting up and stating your issues in front of the group, in fact there is very little talking at all. The atmosphere is one of mystery and reverence and is a deeply personal, moving experience. The group dynamic is more of an energetic exchange, than a verbal one.

JOURNEY'S END

In Addiction Alchemy, you will reach a point of completion and fully know that you have had a victory in your recovery and your many small victories are honored and celebrated at each ceremony. As you work through your intellectual, spiritual, emotional, and physical aspects you begin to open these channels to your will center and the connection to your soul or your core can be restored so that you can feel complete and move forward through your life from a place of wholeness and balance.

As you document and reach a milestone at each aspect you begin to understand that you may need to go around the wheel more than once in order to get to your core (most of us do). And that is great, because we are actually on the wheel whether we consciously know it or not. The wheel is an archetype for life. When you are consciously on the wheel you invoke all the powers and support that are available to you in the universe and it is very powerful! Everything that you need is already present and available to you.

INTEGRATING THE WHEEL INTO YOUR LIFE
 

Some people never get off the wheel because they integrate it into their daily life. You can become so adept at traveling the wheel that you actually become the wheel and take this archetypal energy into your being. You may begin to experience the sensation that you are traveling in spirals and "wheels within the wheel". You can take months, even years to complete a journey on the wheel or you could theoretically travel the wheel in a split second. Your progress will hinge on the amount of energy that you put into it.

Building a wheel at home and creating an altar and a sacred space is another way to honor and stoke the energy of the Medicine Wheel. Of course, regularly communing with nature and honoring all of creation is also a powerful daily reminder of the magic of the wheel.

ANCIENT MEDICINE WHEEL BLUEPRINT
 

The Medicine Wheel is a universal source of power and a primer for the condition of being human. It is the circle of knowledge that gives us the schematic for putting our lives back into balance, giving us the power of choice and direction. It is a comprehensive and dynamic formula which facilitates the flow and integration of all the aspects of the human condition: Intellectual/Thoughts, Spiritual/Beliefs, Emotional/Feelings, Physical/Body and Soul/Will.

What is so striking about the ancient Medicine Wheel is how it's matrix is compatible with and directly correlates to so many different organized philosophies, doctrines, modalities and even religions, both modern and old. The hero's journey and even the Serenity prayer fit on the wheel! It is no small coincidence that this 4000 year old (some say older) formula for life perfectly aligns energetically and philosophically with traditional 12 Steps! No doubt here that the creators of 12 Steps and Alcoholics Anonymous were tapping into some seriously ancient wisdom.

MEDICINE WHEEL & KABBALAH GOING MAINSTREAM
 

The Medicine Wheel is available to anyone regardless of race or heritage who wishes to study it and implement it into their lives. In fact, some of the strongest proponents of the Medicine Wheel were guided by powerful visions to gather the courage to bring these esoteric and tightly held teachings out into the world. The time for NO MORE SECRETS is here. The same holds true for Kabala and mystery teachings. The doors to everything are being flung open. The world is ready now to receive these teachings and to use them for the greater good, for healing, enlightenment and empowerment.
