What we all are experiencing now, all around the world, is a shift in perspective away from a material centric reality toward the more expansive energetic model of creation. It is nothing new, but what is new is our attention to this model of understanding and our willingness to accept it. The growing awareness and reaction to this energetic model bodes well for us humans, and for our precious Earth, as we become better able to claim our true power as a species and, hopefully, take greater responsibility for our role as co-creators in life. Our joys and our pains are of our own making. A great example of this, in part, is seen in a changing attitude toward substance abuse and mental health treatment. It has become clear that the causes for addiction, and their devastating effects on the individual and society, are not rooted in the substance abused, but rather they are buried beneath that insidious behavior. All addictive behavior is an attempt to remedy a root cause, or causes. The motivation or energy of substance abuse is pre-matierial. The substance abused comes later. Everyone has the ability to experience addictive behavior, but not all of us have a need to remedy some painful underlying condition. Evolutionary author Gabor Mate writes, "Ask not why the addiction, but rather why the pain?" Our continuing observance of the energetic model of recovery will accelerate our ongoing efforts to facilitate success in treating substance abuse and mental illness.
