Indulgence, Not Compulsion - A Discussion on Addiction and Recovery

All of us indulge in the things which bring us pleasure – and why wouldn’t we? That’s what life is for! 

But what happens when our indulgences take control of us? When we feel an urge, or a compulsion, to indulge or over-indulge? We no longer enjoy the pleasure… We need it. We become addicted to it. Whatever brought us pleasure in the beginning becomes a physical or psychological need for us to keep going and face the world every day. 

 On this episode of The Neutral Wisdom host Robert Shirley discusses indulgence and compulsion and is joined by a special panel of guests for discussion on addiction and recovery.
