This week’s episode of The Sober Shaman Podcast dives into a big one — possession — and how it connects to the experience of addiction.

We explore how this is not the Hollywood version with demons and exorcisms… but rather the more insidious and self-perpetuated kind. The kind that happens when our own addictive thoughts, beliefs and feelings grab hold of the wheel and take over the driving. Looking back, we wonder exactly when it was we handed over the keys.

In this episode, we'll go into:

• What possession really means in shamanic and recovery terms
• How thought forms — energetic creations born from focused intention and strong emotions — can take on a life of their own
• Why addiction is predictable and cyclical, and what it means when we lose choice
• How to dissolve these patterns and begin feeding the helping & compassionate spirits of healing, gratitude, and recovery

It’s a subject that causes reflexive reactions and that's exactly why I'm diving in. This is a conversation about reclaiming power through awareness and by taking responsibility earlier in the process of manifestation. We go into exactly where these parasites of possession begin their attachment to our thoughts, beliefs, and feelings, and explore how we can disentangle ourselves from them and their destructive outcomes.Links referenced in this episode:
