Ester Nicholson – Soul Recovery
But Ester had an even higher calling: to be of service to the communities of people who could use what she had learned. “We don’t have to do this the hard way anymore,” Ester declared to a workshop she gave several years ago. “What we have to do is engage both the heart and mind to address this serious personal issue that spills over into our families and communities. And it’s deeper than just substance dependence.”
She recognized the disease for what it was, an affliction of the identity.
Ester Nicholson has spent the last 7 years traveling the nation, giving keynote speeches, facilitating workshops and teaching a curriculum for the healing of dependence and dependence-related conditions. During that time, her work has been to optimize the best practices to heal the underlying causes of these conditions.
“My life demonstrates that it’s possible to permanently heal addiction. I know that’s a controversial stand, but it is possible to heal addiction, whether that addiction is to drugs and alcohol or self-denigration, worthlessness or worry. I know it is possible, and I’m committed to helping others find their healing in this.
It’s just too important to do otherwise.”
