Hypnosis can help treat addictions
----------------------------------------
An #addiction builds up over time, people are born with certain temperaments, certain predispositions and certain behaviours. Treating someone with an addiction should never be taken lightly by a #hypnotherapist as so many different factors come into play. Whether you’re addicted to #food, #alcohol, #drugs, #smoking or #gambling,#hypnosis can help you kick these #habits.
Many different #hypnotherapy styles and teachings come into use during these often complex sessions.#Hypnosis can help you regain control of your thoughts and actions ensuring you make the right choices, it also helps alleviate the physical symptoms of addiction. Hypnotherapy is proven to help break addictions for good so that you don’t relapse and become addicted again within a short time.
To help save lives and prevent overdose deaths, take-home naloxone kits are now available at community pharmacies throughout British Columbia, free to people who use opioids or are likely to witness an overdose, Minister of Mental Health and Addictions Judy Darcy announced today.
“Our most urgent priority is to keep people alive, so we’re dramatically expanding easy access to naloxone,” Darcy said. “Bringing a friend or a loved one back from the brink of death can hinge on people knowing how to use a naloxone kit and having access to one – and making them available at local pharmacies makes them more accessible than ever.”

Counseling vs. Treatment Most of the sex addiction programs and certified sex addiction therapists (CSATs) that treat people for sex addiction make a distinction between “counseling” vs. “treatment.” The initial approach to helping people with sex addiction is more often thought of as “treatment.” The difference is that when we think of counseling or therapy we tend to think of a process whereby people change because they get insights into the cause of their problems and this awareness makes them behave differently.

Taken with Ricoh Caplio R4 .. Happy with the shadowed effect of my hand taking a photo of my addiction .. and my daily note list seemed to fit in well. I did need to sharpen, crop and brighten the pic a little.
The Story:
The things we do late at night when we should be in bed. I took this photo as a reminder to keep working on my addiction of smoking.
It has been a battle for me throughout my life. I have given up many times often lasting anywhere from one hour to 8 years. I've tried it all: patches, hypnosis, gum, filters and gone cold turkey. All without permanent success.
Well I'm trying again ..
My doc and I are now having discussions about a new tablet out (It's not Zyban but something better, I have forgotten the name of it .. but will find out and post)
He assures me that most of his patients who have battled with giving up have now done so with this new aid. I'm still mulching it over and researching it's properties, symptoms and side effects. In the meantime I am smoking my herbs and trying to rid my body of it's nicotine addiction. Wish me luck.

What factors play into drug and alcohol addiction?

I actually bough this one about a year ago, but have just neglected to take an image to post. That either makes me forgetful or lazy, neither of which I wanna admit.
This is the largest watch in my collection, and the largest watch - by far - that I've ever seen: 63cm! The face is a beautiful black mother-of-pearl. Though it's a little on the heavy side, I still like it a lot.

About the Quinault and the canoe:
Emmett Oliver watched from his daughter’s truck as his 14-year-old grandson Owen arrived Aug. 1 at Point Grenville in the Chinook Nation’s canoe as part of the 2013 Canoe Journey/Paddle to Quinault, Washington.
It was a perfect storm of irony and symbolism. Twenty-four years ago, Oliver, a noted Quinault educator and retired Coast Guard officer, proposed the Paddle to Seattle as part of Washington state’s centennial celebration. Tall ships, formerly instruments of empires bent on dominating indigenous cultures, were going to be there; Oliver wanted to ensure the state’s First Peoples had a presence, too.
That event gave birth in 1993 to the annual Canoe Journey. This year’s theme was “Honoring Our Warriors,” a tribute to Indian country’s military veterans. And on this day, Oliver – at 99 the Quinault Nation’s oldest living veteran – watched from his home shores as his grandson’s canoe arrived, having been escorted from Neah Bay by the state’s official tall ship.
Oliver’s daughter, Marylin Bard, described the moment as “powerful.” But she said it symbolized much more: The tall ships were invited by Quinault President Fawn Sharp so they could practice protocols of friendship that had been neglected in the past by European sailors – and to convey a message that Native and non-Native peoples can collaborate and work together on common issues.
The moment seemed to set the tone for the 2013 Canoe Journey: Healing, honoring, encouragement and love.
Pullers and skippers in 89 canoes endured rough seas and fog in the month of travel en route to Quinault, but the prayers and medicine were stronger. One canoe tipped between Port Townsend and Jamestown S’Klallam on the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and at least six tipped during the landing at Queets. The bow of a Suquamish canoe was broken after it tipped. And yet all pullers arrived safely at Quinault.
“There were some days maybe we shouldn’t have been out there, but we did our best because we really believe in this Journey,” Suquamish Chairman Leonard Forsman said. “The ocean humbled us, but we made it through. We’re still here.”
In the protocol tent, canoe families shared stories of deliverance and sang songs of blessing, healing and honoring – a recognition that, as Jamestown S’Klallam artist Elaine Grinnell once said, in life and in the canoe “It’s the team that gets you where you need to go.”
“Songs have the power to reach out and heal,” said Antone George, Lummi. “This is what Tribal Journeys is all about.”
The tall ships Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain escorted canoes down the Pacific Coast of Washington state during the 2013 Canoe Journey/Paddle to Quinault. The escort was provided to commemorate the 225th anniversary of first contact between the new United States of America and the Quinault Nation. Quinault President Fawn Sharp called the tall ships’ involvement an opportunity to help make some amends for some past transgressions” and “convey[s] a message that tribal and nontribal communities choose to look forward to and work together on a collaborative basis toward common objectives.”
George asked for prayers for those on the “journey to wellness.” He encouraged people to never give up on loved ones working to recover from addiction, “because sometimes the hardest thing [for them] is to give up something like that.”
This six-day celebration of the strength of Northwest indigenous cultures included the honoring of culture bearers – including Musgamagw Tsawataineuk Chief Frank Nelson, who had recently been hospitalized for an illness. The honoring of Nelson was powerful, and included gifting and singing and dancing to songs for which he is known.
There were stories of cultural renewal as well. A Palouse woman told of pulling in the Journey – starting on the Snake River in eastern Washington and continuing on to the Columbia River and the Pacific. It was the first time the Palouse had canoed on the Snake River since her grandfather’s time.
A group of Skokomish people hiked an ancestral trail over the Olympic Mountains to Quinault, the first time in about 100 years that Skokomish people had walked the ancient trade route.
And on Point Grenville, which the Spanish and British visited in the late 1700s and the U.S. used as a Coast Guard station from the 1930s through the 1980s, Quinault installed the first of three story poles by Quinault artist James DeLaCruz Jr. The poles will symbolize Quinault restoration, sovereignty and spirituality. The first pole was dedicated in honor of Oliver.
Quinault hosted an estimated 10,000 people, Quinault spokesman Steve Robinson said. Indigenous nations from British Columbia, Washington and Oregon – as well as Maori, Native Hawaiians and the Shinnecock Nation of Long Island – participated and shared their cultures.
Quinault provided oceanfront and forested campsites, firewood, medical and healing tents, laundry and showers, breakfasts and dinners. The menu included elk, crab and salmon.
This is the second time Quinault hosted the Canoe Journey; it last hosted a journey in 2002, when 38 canoes participated. This was the 21st annual Canoe Journey since 1993; there was a four-year gap between the Paddle to Seattle and the first annual Journey in 1993. There were two Journey routes in 2000.

Confessions of a 3rd Decade-age Chocoholic:
CHOCOLATE!! CHOCOLAT!! CHOCOLADE!! EL CHOCOLATE!!
Milk, dark, white, bitter, semisweet, bittersweet, unsweetened,
Nutty, carAmel-infused, alcohol-infused (oh yeah!), un-mixed with peanut butter (nice!).
Ghirardelli, Cadbury, Godiva, Cote d’Or, Hersheys, Lindt, Nestle, Scharffen Berger.
How I love you,
How I deserve you,
How I crave you,
How I long for you………….
You rule my world,
You comfort my sorrows,
You celebrate my achievements,
You procure major points from the wifey,
You flirt with my desire,
You increase my losses in the battle of the bulge,
You do battle with my teeth…but I can’t resist.
You drive me crazy!!!!!
To the point that I don’t know how to savor you.
I cram you in my mouth,
And before I know it…you are gone.
Leaving me wanting more…LOTS more!
Though you make me weak with want,
I pray oh pray that when I am 90…………..
I can still enjoy the taste of your amazing flavors!
Ahhh……Chocolate………………………………..
