Natural Healing for Addictions and mental illness
A Passion for Healing: Dr. Talia Witkowski
From her earliest memories, Dr. Talia Witkowski could feel the feelings and sense the thoughts of others, as her own.
Her ability to "feel" others in this way, allowed her the ability to understand what happens to a person's "self" when they depart into mental illness, addiction and uncontrollable emotional issues. She could feel how powerless and scared the person felt as their moods and/or thoughts took over. It changed the very core of their beings into people even they could not recognize, or control. They confided in her that they felt like "monsters." Out of control more often than not. Unable to control their moods and behaviors, and therefore too "dangerous" to receive true love and friendship. They avoided real connection because they could not protect others from themselves. This led to severe depression, suicidal ideation, addiction, mental illness and more.
Specifically utilizing the 4th step of the 12 Steps of Alcoholic Anonymous, and general spiritual principle to heal those prone to "splitting," Dr. Witkowski has spent the last 2 decades working with clients globally ranging in age, diagnosis, level of severity, etc. and has developed general, and customized solutions to help people end the cycle of mental illness, addiction and emotional issues which plague us as a species, globally.
In the end, she found that there was only one problem and only one solution - we are terrified as a species to FEEL. Crying feels like kryptonite, but it is the antidote to all emotional pain, addiction and mental illness. The more someone can FEEL, the more self-aware they become, and in that self-awareness they can process emotional reactions, before they cause psychotic episodes, splits, depression, etc.
The goal is to be self aware enough to stop oneself from "splitting," and harming others, if we so chose. That is what International School of Humanity teaches. Self-awareness, self-love, feeling, healing and being of service through living by spiritual principle in ALL things.
Human Existence: Why We Are Here & How to Get Through:
Life is like a video game, but OLD SCHOOL VIDEO GAMES like MARIO BROTHERS - you can't just sit and do nothing - the screen will pass you by and you'll die. In "real life" you don't actually die if you do nothing, but you will feel like you're dying, or find yourself fantasizing about it....
The simulation that we call life was created to push us forward, and the pain makes us aware that something is "wrong" - that we have to pivot in some way. Usually what's "wrong," is where we are placing the majority of our energy, time and "love" - Romance and Finance.
We want to move away from states of being that no longer serve us, but we HATE change, so we hold on to the old ways of thinking, and feeling, and being, until holding on to the past is so painful, we must let go...the old friendship circles, the existing jobs, the current lifestyle.
What's familiar is predictable, and what's predictable can be controlled - that's what the person with the victim consciousness surrenders to every time they don't do what's right for them in the moment.
Change is scary, but not changing is far scarier!
We run through life like drones reacting to what we think the other wants us to be. Never do we stop and say, who the hell am I? I know who I am in reaction to my mother, my father, my friends, my co-workers - but we are different people in different company. Many live a life of a chameleon - always trying to fit in, to receive what we think is the most valuable - love, affirmation, and that feeling that we are "good enough."
Acceptance is the drug of consumerism.
Consumerism is fueled by making us feel worthless and different, and buying things to feel connected and loved. In the end that only creates more feelings of separation.
We are here to play the game, not sit on the sidelines, and the only way to play the game well is to learn the rules and then TAKE ACTION!!! We learn by failing, not by sitting safely at home, and the rules are LIVE BY SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLE. PERIOD.
So follow your heart and your "desires" - at the very worst you'll learn something. If you like the results, keep doing that thing, if you don't, stop!

Master Classes for Humanity
To understand yourself is to understand the world. Feeling your feelings, and your fellow human beings' feelings, can be painful, but the alternative is far more deadly to the soul.
