Isn't Overcoming Addiction Just A Surface Success?

[Pia]

hey ✌️,

I' ve watched Leos video on overcoming addiction and i was wondering if thats just the surface success, bc isnt it more important why one has an addiction at the first place?

@Pia that's what he mentions, he says the root cause is that you're afraid to face emptiness through being and so you use something to fill that emptiness which is the addiction, so he says to meditate to face the emptiness 

Bu challenging that root cause then you will end up overcoming your addictions as a by-product

oh right ...makes sense ?

thanks @Saarah
