Spend the weekend learning an adaptable system to break even the most entrenched habituated patterns. The basic addictions protocol has three levels. First we arm people with the understanding of how habits are formed and changed in the brain. We give them six different techniques to stop cravings and more importantly, the emotions that lead to them. It's a system of self -directed neuroplasticity so the techniques will offer relief from the cravings while systematically rewiring the habit.

The second level of the protocol works to change the emotional impact of past traumas, associations, and the negative beliefs and emotions that many addicts carry around. These techniques are based on the research of memory reconsolidation and the fact that we can change significantly the power of implicit memories which then makes it easier to heal and move on. You will also learn how to re encode and install positive beliefs and motivators. Neutralizing old triggers and conditioning in new responses.

The third level is about personal power. Teaching addicts to develop alternative strategies for reward. Based on the work around willpower and meaning making, we help them cultivate new narratives while reframing old stories. Using different forms of self hypnosis for motivation and insight, the protocol sets up recursive platforms for generative change.
