Natural Rest for Addiction: A Revolutionary Way to Recover Through Presence

Natural Rest for Addiction is Scott Kiloby's book employing his unique perspective on recovering from addiction. Thoughts tell us that the present moment is lacking, and other thoughts lead us towards addictive substances and activities that provide only temporary relief from the uncomfortable emotions and sensations that we are trying to avoid. It stands to reason that if addiction is primarily a thinking problem, then more thinking won't help. Instead of introducing new belief systems or thinking strategies, Scott points to us to living in the peaceful and natural rest of the present moment, where all thoughts, emotions and sensations are allowed to come and go without “hooking” us into their grip anymore. This deep and profound acceptance of our inner experience is the perfect antidote to the constant desire to change, fix, improve or get rid of the thoughts, emotions, and sensations that we experience with addiction. This radical change in perspective allows us to live a life that contains more ease, love, joy and compassion, instead of constantly chasing the future and the next fix. We simply rest and allow life to be as it is. This is the key to a life without addiction. Recent scientific research has shown that addicts experience quickly flashing, unconscious mental images in the moment before they reach for an addictive substance and activity. Scott’s book contains his innovative “Living Inquiries,” including the Compulsion Inquiry. The Compulsion Inquiry lies on the cutting edge of these recent scientific findings. It neutralizes and erases these quickly flashing images and allows the bodily energy that accompanies the images to be released. The book contains deep insights into the personal stories of deficiency (“I’m not good enough” or “I’m unworthy”) that fuel addiction and provides simple, effective ways of allowing those stories to fall away so that the natural rest of presence can be realized even more deeply. Once you read the book, you will see that there is a thriving online community at www.naturalrestforaddiction.com where you can gain support by facilitators of Scott’s work and others recovering with natural rest. Scott defines addiction very broadly so that everyone is welcomed into his program. Whether you are addicted to heroin, can't stop gorging on cookies or find yourself unable to just relax and enjoy life, this book can provide much needed help! It's written in plain, easy-to-read language. But don't let the simplicity of the language fool you. Scott's work is profoundly transformative.
