An Avatar Leaves Us

Louise Hay: October 8, 1926 – August 30, 2017

From her teachings on ADDICTION – Heavy dependence upon anything outside myself is addiction. I can be addicted to drugs and alcohol, to sex and tobacco; and I can also be addicted to blaming people or judging people, to illness, to debt, to being a victim, to being rejected. Yet, I can move beyond these things. Being addicted is giving up my power to a substance or a habit. I can always take my power back. This is the moment I take my power back! I choose to develop the positive habit of knowing life is here for me. CONTINUED @ LousieHay.com
