At
the heart of Addiction Alchemy is a matrix that Renee developed as a
result of extensive research and guidance she received, which reveals
astonishing correspondences between the aspects of the Medicine Wheel
and existing universal themes and archetypes. This, she feels, is what
makes Addiction Alchemy unique. She is certainly not the first person to
focus the use of Medicine Wheel for healing addiction and hopefully she
won't be the last! However, she is among the first to bring this
technology into the mainstream.
Renee discovered the Medicine
Wheel as a healing tool without ever having attended a 12 Step Group,
nor having any prior knowledge of it or addiction recovery in general.
She saw people coming to Medicine Wheel journey's and healing addictions
they didn't even know they had! She was one of them. Yet as she
continued to research the Medicine Wheel, her explorations took her to
even deeper levels and into even older philosophies and teachings that
mirrored and tied in with those of the Medicine Wheel, which include the
Kabalistic Tree of Life which is considered to be Western philosophy and
Buddhism/Taoism, which of course, is Eastern philosophy.
The ability to "plug in", exchange
and interchange archetypes, imagery, symbology and practices into the
Medicine Wheel frame work allows the program to meet the individual
"where they are at on the map". The eclecticism and elasticity of
Addiction Alchemy could allow an entire population, who for whatever
reason could not connect with 12 Steps and Alcoholics Anonymous, to
connect to the over-arching power of archetypal energy healing.
For her, the appeal of the
Medicine Wheel is that it boils down ancient and often esoteric
philosophies into a relatively simple and bite-sized holographic model,
that is easy to wrap your head around. The wheel is more of a
transporter of archetypal energy than it is the energy itself. That is
why merely being in the wheel, even without a deep understanding of what
it is can produce profound results.
Many of the ancient wisdoms, and
this includes the Bible, can take years to assimilate and study and
often offer confusing and scattered advice which can be subjective in
it's interpretation and application to your life. The Medicine Wheel is
not a philosophy, so much as it is a formula that provides a way to make
sense of your human experience and to help practically apply the fine
points and practices of almost any religion or philosophy in a more
meaningful way to your life. It can actually help you embody your
beliefs in a way that does not usurp your ability to co-create your life
and give away your personal power to anything or anyone.
Ultimately, she discovered that
these tools allow for creations that are limited only by the
imagination, not only in the field of recovery and healing, but beyond
that into creativity and manifestation. Hence, the birth of Addiction
Alchemy.
