– the environment, the body, the mind, spirit, work, friends, and future. Additionally a lifestyle change to a


therapeutic way of living in which each day builds health, creates an ongoing momentum for change, constantly introduces ‘the new’, and creates a rich inner world, as well as a functional interaction with the physical world is needed.


The following are 10 key things I advise for those wanting to quit drugs or alcohol and move on to an empowered addiction-free future.

SPRING CLEAN YOUR HOME, CAR, AND PHONE Drug vibes (what we call ‘chi’ in


Chinese medicine) can attach to places and things and become one of the subconscious triggers for relapse. Do a big spring clean of home and car. Destroy any drug paraphernalia and even replace furniture, clothes, or objects associated with past drug or alcohol use. Make your home look and feel as much like a nurturing health retreat as possible, use soothing colours (blue and green), lots of plants, and hang optimistic imagery or mantras on the walls. Delete all drug-related contacts from your phone, or ideally, get a new phone.


GET REGULAR TREATMENTS Get acupuncture, remedial massage, and Chinese herbal


formulas once a week for at least three years, because that’s how long it takes to get the drug chi out of your body, mind and spirit. Friday after work is an ideal treatment timeslot as it prevents anxiety about a weekend relapse. Acupuncture and remedial massage balance yin and yang so you won’t feel the need to ‘correct’ imbalances with drugs. You’ll just want to go home, watch a movie, or chill out. Traditional Chinese medicine combines psychology and medicine so regular treatments also resolve emotional issues.

TAKE NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS Excessive drug use creates


lethargy, depression, anger, emptiness, lack of motivation, pessimism, and emotional reactivity as well as aches and pains, which can create cravings. Good quality supplements will alleviate these symptoms and lift your mood. They also repair organ damage and


create the basis for people to be able to experience peak performance and altered states again without drugs. Drugs are a concentrated intensified substance that deliver instant results, and that functionality needs to be matched in the efficacy of the supplements. I recommend practitioner ranges, not supermarket or chemist supplements.

EAT NUTRITIOUS COOKED MEALS (NO FASTING, NO RAW FOODS, NO JUICE


CLEANSES) Making every aspect of life, including food, medicinal is a key to preventing relapse. The post-addiction diet needs to nourish body, mind, and spirit by building ‘ jing’. Jing is the internal force that powers us physically, emotionally, and even spiritually. Drug use takes a toll on the digestive functions creating food intolerances after quitting so slow cooked food (like congees, stews, or soups) are ideal. They build jing and are easy to digest. Avoid fad ‘healthy’ diets like green


smoothies for breakfast and raw foods. These require lots of energy
