Breaking Free: How Living with Integrity Can Transform Your Life & Your RecoveryWelcome to another episode of the Unhooked podcast, the place to learn how to break free from compulsive behaviors and bad habits, so that you can create the life you want.Porn addiction often leads to a dual life, one where we're constantly hiding, concealing, and living with the ever-present fear of being found out. But there's more to it than just the fear of exposure. It's the belief that we're inherently flawed, undeserving of happiness and love, which can lead us to self-sabotage.We'll dive into the various ways this distress manifests, from the fear of getting caught to the heavy burden of guilt and shame for the harm we've caused ourselves and others. But fear not, for in contrast to this torment lies the bliss of blamelessness.In Buddhist practice, ethics lay the foundation for a mindful life. The Buddha himself taught the importance of ethical living before delving into meditation, recognizing that ethics are the gateway to a happier, more peaceful existence. By living in accordance with our values and embracing ethical principles, we pave the way for the bliss of blamelessness.The five precepts of Buddhism, including refraining from harm, theft, dishonesty, sexual misconduct, and intoxicants that lead to heedlessness, offer a solid framework for ethical living. It's not about sins or judgment but rather about training ourselves to experience greater happiness and clarity.Join me as we explore the path to living with the bliss of blamelessness, a journey that involves understanding and aligning with our ethical principles. As you'll discover, this path leads to a life free from fear, anxiety, and the burden of secrecy.So, if you're ready to embark on this journey toward integrity and recovery, hit that subscribe button so you never miss an episode.
