No More Desire Addiction Recovery

No More Desire Addiction Recovery

I struggled with porn addiction, food addiction, video game addiction, and other mental illnesses for many years. Cravings would get so intense sometimes it felt like I could hardly breathe - like my brain was on fire. I desperately searched for a way to long-lasting recovery & mental wellness, but nothing I tried seemed to work long-term. I wondered if there were a way to not only recover from addiction, but experience true relief. I wanted to be FREE, so I could finally have the quality relationships, confidence, motivation, and potential I knew were waiting for me. Years of study took me to ancient wisdom. There, I came to understand that the same things driving my addictions were also driving mental health issues like anxiety, depression, obsessive thinking, attention issues, and low energy and motivation. I found answers to not only quit porn and my other addictions, but to experience mental & emotional peace. My courses & meditations teach you daily practices to help you reshape thought patterns & beliefs & more deeply connect with God, so you experience a transformation in mental health & naturally lose your desire for addiction over time.

I often see perfectionism and addiction go hand-in-hand - in other words a propensity to expect too much of ourselves and ...

To know how to break free of porn addiction, we start by exploring the deep pain underneath the surface. Porn cravings come as a result of mental and emotional pain. Everyone deals with this pain to one extent or another. When we struggle with addiction, it simply means that this pain has reached a more intense/frequent stage than it has for some. 


For this reason, there is no shame in porn addiction. It simply means our ego - ...

When asked where pornography addiction comes from, many of us are tempted to say “sex cravings”, lust, dopamine, or “boys will be boys.” These all play a part, but I feel that none of them get to the core of the issue.

What if I told you that you are only good? That there is no bad in you? What if I told you that your being contains no evil or fear, but only love? 

Most likely, this sounds like a strange concept. Either it brings up memories of pop songs that say “You’re amazing just the way you are” or mother’s kissing their children on the forehead as they tell them “you’re perfect.”

Before you head out on a road of misgivings...
