Feeding the Right Wolf: Graeme Hoppitt's Guide to Natural Addiction Recovery
“You and you alone get to choose to surrender to your envy, sorrow or regret, or you can choose to feed your inner peace instead, the joy, the hope. Every Single Day of your life is determined by that decision that you made: which wolf should I feed in this moment?”
Have you ever heard the tale of the two wolves? In this episode of 'Addiction Free Naturally', Graeme Hoppitt uses this ancient Cherokee story to shed light on addiction recovery. The story goes like this: an elder tells his grandson about two wolves battling within us all. One wolf embodies anger, envy, and sorrow, while the other stands for joy, peace, and love. The grandson asks, 'Which wolf wins?' The elder replies, 'The one you feed'.
Graeme takes this powerful metaphor and applies it to the journey of overcoming addiction. By choosing which thoughts and emotions to nourish, you can steer your life towards positivity and away from destructive habits. It's not just about resisting urges; it's about fostering a mindset that supports long-term recovery. Graeme emphasizes that with self-discipline, determination, and the right support, anyone can conquer their addiction naturally.
This episode is packed with practical advice and motivational insights that make it a must-listen for anyone on the path to sobriety or supporting a loved one through it. Tune in to discover how feeding the right wolf can transform your life.
