The Key to Your Freedom.

BLOG POST BY: Jack Alan Levine

I have to fly a lot for business, but I really do not enjoy flying these days. It seems the skies have gotten very turbulent. And, I really hate turbulence! I hate that feeling of bouncing up and down on the plane like a knuckleball, and the large drops, […Once I was sharing this with a friend of mine who was a pilot in the Vietnam War. He looked at me and laughed and he said, “Jack, if you understood turbulence you wouldn’t be afraid of it.” Then he proceeded to explain to me how turbulence in the air is really like turbulence at sea. The boat goes up and down in the waves but you know the boat is not going to sink, it’s just a bumpy ride. He explained to me how the air pockets in the sky had that same effect on airplanes. I have to tell you, it did make me feel much better, because now I really understood how it worked. Now, I truly believed that we weren’t going to crash just because of turbulence. It gave me great peace of mind and helped me enjoy flying much more, even with the turbulence.

It’s the same thing with addiction. If you understand addiction and what it does, why it does it and how it works, you will be less afraid of it. And, certainly, if you understand recovery, what it does, how it works and why, you will be more excited and encouraged to embrace it and have it work for you.

Many people don’t do things because of fear of the unknown. So, instead they just stay in the knowledge, or I should say lack of knowledge they have. Scared to act, even when those actions would be beneficial to their life and health. We want to eliminate this issue for you. We want to educate and inform you about addiction by teaching you why addicts think and behave like they do, the effects of the addict on the family and the most effective path’s to recovery. This gives you a working knowledge of addiction you can apply in your own life, or in the life of an addicted loved one.

More importantly, when you understand not just why addicts think and behave like they do, but also see the path’s to recovery and what you can do to take control of your own life or to help an addicted loved one take control of theirs, it will be an eye opening and wonderfully empowering experience for you.

It all starts with knowledge. Knowledge is the key to wisdom. When you have knowledge and understanding it will give you great peace and comfort, it is also the tool by which you can achieve your goals. Imagine trying to put together a model airplane without instructions, or assemble a car engine without instructions, you probably couldn’t do it. Yet, when you follow the instructions step-by-step, carefully and accurately, then you can complete the task and accomplish the goal. It’s the same with addiction.

I pray that we are a valuable resource and tool for you to knowledge and wisdom so that you have victory over addiction and live the greatest life possible. God bless you, good luck to you and your family on the road to recovery.

To your Freedom,
