Recovery from addiction through basic Mindfulness

Introduction

Currently addicted to the exact definition of a clear agreement between health care professionals do not have. Historically, it is only a slight alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, such as has been defined in the context of psychoactive substances.

More recently, however, the "addiction" are considered by many experts that a lot of resources specifically related to dysfunctional patterns of behavior. Some typical examples are addicted gambling, food, sex, pornography, computers, video games, television, diet, Internet access, work, sports, shopping, and their cutting / burning, etc.

Common theme among the victims of these diseases and their parents, and they repeated their own definitions of each activity involved in addiction to a powerful internal drive.

All of the neurophysiology of addiction, whether material or behavioral problems, are very similar in many aspects of neuroscience evidence is increasing. Endorphins (endogenous morphine-or), for example, in all diseases dopamine, adrenaline and serotonin-mediated factors such as general, but also important neurotransmitter.

In the modern world it is very likely that the prevalence of addiction. United States alone, 15.1 million people in 40,000 drug-, alcohol-dependent, and more than 20% of the population is still addicted to cigarettes.

Assess the overall prevalence of addiction to any action, and more reliable way, but it is very common that they have sufficient evidence. In fact, taking any form of addictive behavior is not alive today are probably very few people.

Complete honesty that you can be one of them to help you decide whether or not in the context of the following questions answered: I personally believe in self-destructive or harmful behavior to feel some form of driving, and some do you need in the future, guilt, shame, embarrassment and / or regret to some extent?

A new way to understand the addiction

Note the following simple, but in many ways a crude, basic mindfulness to understand how the rough framework, the brain / mind in the formation of a highly effective method would be helpful, all addictive behavior is based on re-provision.

Like all other creatures on this planet, people typically seek the joy and the pain tends to avoid or escape. The two were very strong genetic instincts for survival continues to be essential, but they also are all rooted addiction to a powerful and lasting is the most fertile common ground.

They start the basic behavior patterns in the heart of the poisoning even before we were born, a very natural and legitimate manner, and the development of these internal trends can continue to grow from that point.

They develop a very complex and increasingly more subtle and more difficult to understand the brain / mind processes can be governed, but the nature of the initial progress of the two principles are very simple.

Principle # 1: we are all subjective happiness or satisfaction can be increased again, leading to what extent we are, the better the chance every time. In general, the likelihood of a recurrence of this behavior to some extent the joy / satisfaction is proportional to the experience.

The repeated recurrence of a particular order or its potential future growth, "the strength of habit." As it evolved, more streamlined and increasingly conscious perception occurs and / or require intentionality to "Auto" tend to be. In this way, developing mostly automatic behavior patterns, corresponding to the joy that can be here.

Principle # 2: we are all subjective emotional / physical pain, discomfort and complaints have decreased, if we can, again, a little behind the probability increases. Again, the subjective pain / experience level is proportional to the reduction of complaints in general will increase the likelihood of recurrence.

The repetition of this sequence are similar or the possibility of recurrence of their future growth, "the strength of habit." As mentioned above this happens, it will automatically be taken more and more. This type of automatic habit pattern is referred to here as the final answer.

In the above, the word to refer to an external action "do everything", and their emotional feelings, ie the internal representation, mental imagery and / or self-talk can lead those who have. Typically, their response patterns, and therefore is an important part of overall external behavior of the reaction associated with this internal representation is more derived. Very often, they are also used to activate the external behavior of the reaction plays an important role.

For example, / images actually activate it appropriate to eat inside the reaction tends to a piece of chocolate cake in the fridge to think about. For example, a headache, think of the future in accordance with the high probability of termination reactions, aspirin, just as if you: and / or below the image of "I need aspirin," and to obtain relief.

Almost everyone raised again the reaction of the photos tend to seek pleasure, experienced person, activates know - at least the degree of pleasure, as opposed to the subtle feelings, images and re-experience similar 경 flavor of the final reaction sensibility relief pain / discomfort turn it on. The same as for pleasure or an unpleasant future events on the prevention of internal self-image of the story and / or to apply.

For example, someone who experiences a lot of stress at work, I repeated the weekend and / or repetitiously what she will do so If you can imagine: "I almost can not wait ...." Two internal processes, so subtle, garden-variety is to understand the internal terminator reactions. It does not recognize, and automatically, they are also very often it is very important to understand.

In this context, the following reactions, such as addiction to any pleasure in the final reaction, or the larger self and / or other harm to a combination of both, justice, and it is powerful enough to effectively and automatically Set the number of first, at least in some cases - deliberate conscious efforts to suppress or control.

According to this definition whatever addiction, physical pain and / or emotional causes, and the pain tends to activate the auto-shutdown response, so this is a process of self-sufficiency or "vicious" is set.

For example, take, alcoholism, chronic worry about how their rates are very stressful week at work and had to pay. To predict the trigger geugaga stop spending a lot of their salary until you shut down and closed the bar drunk in a pub favorite "Happy Hour" and ends with a strong reaction.

His wife, his children all of them are very emotional, upset about one of your children to participate in a special birthday celebration is expected to come home. Since they are shocked that he is finally home from the big debate between parents and will continue through.

Happen when a terrible hangover the next morning he was there that he did more than a bad reotneunji guilt, shame, and is filled with strong feelings of self-loathing. Ingestion of large amounts of alcohol, he was temporarily stopped by the emotional pain of his basic level now is a huge, raised far more than the original plinth.

Given the level of pain, it's the same set of reactions to the tragic cycle of the other addictive offsetting round very quickly, which is likely to be activated.

Addiction recovery, such as a foster parent of the default

Mindfulness meditation is known as the original discovery of the Gautama Buddha in the future of the young prince by the name of sittareutaneunraneun more than 25 centuries ago, has been developed in India. He's an effective way to end suffering for the intensive search has found five years later. And forty years he spent many of his followers to teach this way. In humans, all the practices of hundreds of millions of Asian countries since the longing.

It introduces a few decades in Western countries have been successfully, so it's especially psychology, medicine, education and personal development areas such as common with, the culture was quickly into the mainstream. In addition, neuroscience research is a very hot topic at this point was.

basic definition of mindfulness

Primary care, when I found here, each is comprised of three powerful mental abilities:

Of power 1) concentration;
2) clarity and a sense
3) rating.

Given sufficient consultation and training practice, almost all of these technologies can be developed to a very high standard. An argument, they effectively can be applied to all areas of life.

In particular, it is second to none in improving the means of recognition, and that includes all the addiction is very important, highly automated and therefore is exempt from a variety of awkward habit patterns. In addition, you can enjoy all the fun of a long life as well as providing opportunities for mentally and physically to solve all types of pain are very powerful means to provide.

Here's a basic mindfulness brief definition of three sub-skills are as follows:

Concentration of power is simply considered to be related to a specific time you choose which definition is the ability to attend and steadily.

We are clearly aware of sensory perception, and the ever-lasting changes that are bound to all external and internal sense is that the event is canceled.

Very importantly, it will be incorporated into beverages and stop the reaction mentioned above, including the subtle inner mental state is. These transients typically automatically with little or no conscious awareness is raised.

For the average person without mindfulness training, which they apparently are not aware, but usually they get some relief on the powerful and highly toxic action to resist the urge occurred many times. Then, as a result, they are often clumsy, highly automated and give rise to behavioral responses.

These internal states can be divided into three main categories:

1) emotional feelings in the body;
2) a daydream, and
3) verbal thought

Calm the negative judgments about what you do consciously abandoned the problem level of acceptance and self-evident that love slowly replaced by an attitude that means. Effectively, our internal mental process that flows without resistance or interference are allowed.

Very important in any way, indifference, and indifference that would imply. In fact, the fact that it understands the internal and external circumstances than the energy corresponding to the indifference that is the opposite of ease.

In addition, related experience is the opposite of the radical press rights. On the external emotion, but the best of his / her particular life situation that you send them to the appropriate authorized to select one.

Basic mindfulness to help recover from an addiction how

In line with the basic nature of this article, the following brief description of the basic methods and mindfulness training to help them recover from addiction official's initial understanding of the practice. What it highlights, hopefully the reader a unique potential in this regard will help you identify some. (For more on how to most comprehensive information mentioned below, is provided by my blog.)

The practice of mindfulness official while sitting upright in a comfortable position, but do the most basic is the eyes gently closed.

mindfulness training in the typical range of 10-45 minutes duration. Much more extended practice, after a few weeks of basic training to accelerate their development. This is typically a period of several hours at a time, specifically to support the focus for a few days or weeks to realize the kind of practice is designed to be "recession" is used to set

The initial step in the evolution of the practice all awake feeling calm center of clarity and focus to highlight important power.

The concentration of power inside the microscope, and then act like, you are clearly very important and emotional, and mental images, and feel, all the external and internal sense of verbal self-talk event too.

A simple sub-vocal labels (eg, "feel", "talk" to the "image", etc.) continued accurate observation, meditator official "note" to support the state of these sensations. He / she also all beautiful, and full compliance and non-reactive with the same deep calm and "contains."

The state of equilibrium concentrations of naturally occurring as a result of the use of very important deep body-mind what mitigation is included. Therefore, it is very natural, comfort and satisfaction is, and for addicted people often find they compulsively addicted external object is actually a wealth of inside cause there is a dramatic realization.

Observe the reaction process is very intensive and was previously an internal state are vague, global static, and overwhelming experience again clearly recognize the subtle spirit of the event was nothing more than an impersonal and temporary rivers. Shinzen Young, a master teacher of basic mindfulness "divide and conquer" strategy sometimes highly sophisticated recognition refers to the process of empowerment.

traditional practice of mindfulness, this simple process of systematically prior to his violent "cleansing" with a sense of clean, highly differentiated state of the internal sense of awareness and provides calm. It significantly reduced abruptly or gradually, or sometimes clumsy responses below to enable fully automated eliminating the possibility of an internal state.

The application of basic treatment, all forms of addiction, then an effective instrument for the recovery. Interestingly, in this respect, she is a "high power" rather than repeatedly proved to be a very inefficient one ego-based "Power", focusing on a sustained recovery is used effectively, pure consciousness.
