Don't believe everything you think.
The mighty elephant possesses immense strength, able to uproot trees solely with its trunk. Yet, it remains captive, restrained by a slender rope. Despite its power to easily escape, it makes no attempt to break free. Why? The story begins during its youth, when it is first bound with a feeble rope, still lacking the strength to break it. In initial efforts, it strives with all its might to break loose, but eventually realizes its efforts are in vain. Gradually, a force stronger than chains or barriers takes hold of it—an unshakable belief that escape is impossible. This belief restrains the elephant, impeding its potential despite its capabilities. Comparable beliefs have constrained many of us, causing us to feel unfulfilled in our work, struggle in relationships, and lead lives far from our desired reality.

Choices that can change your life!

We're continually learning to observe, exploring new dimensions within ourselves and the world we perceive. Consider our internal domain, the realm behind our eyes, a new frontier - a frontier of fascination and self-exploration. We're captivated by our own existence, more so than previous generations, marking ourselves as this uncharted terrain. Thus, studying the origins of illness and healing transcends its historical significance, taking on a new dimension in the world we now inhabit.

Although I had been a heavy drinker and often binged on alcohol until I was oblivious, that first experience with cocaine marked a pivotal moment. At the time, I stood at a crossroads: I had just finished university, broken up with a long-term boyfriend, and had to navigate life without the safety nets of education and the relationship. My decision was ill-fated—I opted to become a partygoer. I took a job in the hospitality industry, where drug use and drinking were rampant. The allure of fitting in and my inability to sustain that lifestyle through drinking alone led me to that first line of cocaine.
