Mastering the Addictive Personality: The Path Out Mastering the Addictive Personality: The Path Out of Hell 7th – 13th November 2026

The training moves gradually from understanding the formation of the anxious and addictive nature, into recognising the behaviours and belief systems that keep it alive, and then into building a practical, long-term recovery plan.

What the week includes

Across the seven days, I will teach through a mixture of lecture, discussion, embodied practice, group work and reflection.

The week includes:

Addiction and the anxious self

Understanding how anxiety, trauma, shame and emotional overwhelm shape addictive patterns.

The nervous system and emotional regulation

Applied teaching on the vagus nerve, the limbic system, stress hormones, fascia and the muscles involved in stress responses.

The body in survival mode

Exploring fight, flight, freeze, fawn… collapse and the embodied patterns that keep us organised around fear, control and protection.

The addictive mind

Looking at compulsion, repetition, self-sabotage, acting out, resistance and the stories that keep addictive patterns in place.

Disorders and the hatred of how you feel

Understanding disorders not only as labels, but as ways the psyche and body attempt to create safety around shame, trauma, fear and emotional overwhelm.

Shame and self-attack

Understanding shame as one of the hidden organising forces in addiction, anxiety and disconnection.

Breathwork and yoga as tools for recovery

A full yoga class each day, alongside breathwork and embodied practices that support emotional regulation, presence and self-awareness.

Boundaries, self-parenting and responsibility

Developing the internal structures needed for recovery, steadiness and change.

Spiritual practice, ritual and ceremony

Exploring what can replace acting out, collapse and compulsion with meaning, presence, repetition and reverence.

The recovery plan

Over the course of the week, you will build a personal toolbox for long-term recovery, relapse prevention and continued practice.

The addictive personality is not (only) about subs The addictive personality is not (only) about substances

Addiction is often spoken about through the lens of substances: alcohol, drugs, food, sugar, sex, work, money, phones, shopping, chaos.

But the addictive personality is not only about what you do but also what happens inside you before you do it.

That may involve overwhelm, anxiety, shame. The hunger for escape. The hatred of how you feel. The inability to stay present. The collapse into old behaviours.

The need to change the state you are in, quickly.

In November, I once again run my flagship training, Mastering the Addictive Personality: The Path Out of Hell. 

This training explores addiction as a deeply embodied, emotional, psychological and spiritual pattern.

It asks:

What happened to you?

What did you do with what happened to you?

What beliefs did you build?

What behaviours became your armour?

What does your nervous system now expect from the world?

And what might it mean to live differently?

The course is hybrid, so you can join me in London or online from anywhere in the world.

A seven-day training exploring addiction, anxiety, A seven-day training exploring addiction, anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, recovery and the possibility of profound personal change.

This is a week for understanding the addictive personality from the inside out but…

Not as a diagnosis, moral failing, or as something to be shamed, ‘fixed’ or hidden.

Addiction, anxiety, disorders of various kinds… they are a robust and intelligent set of behaviours, beliefs and survival strategies that were created in response to life.

Over seven days, I will guide you through a powerful exploration of what leads to the anxious and addictive nature, how it lives in the body and nervous system, and what it takes to move beyond the patterns that once helped you survive but may now keep you stuck.

This is a week of lecture, yoga, breathwork, group process, reflection and practice.

It is open to anyone interested in addiction, recovery, trauma, shame, anxiety, emotional regulation and the path towards greater freedom.

Yes, we still celebrate weddings. Perhaps some of Yes, we still celebrate weddings. Perhaps some of us still make a thing of our birthdays.

But what about grief?

Recovery?

Divorce?

Becoming a parent?

Children leaving home?

Illness?

Healing?

Ritual helps us mark change. Ceremony helps us honour what matters.

Without them, life can begin to feel strangely empty.

This October we’ll explore how ritual can bring meaning, depth and sacredness back into ordinary life.

#Ritual #Ceremony #Meaning
Ritual & Ceremony 24th & 25th October 2026 9.30am Ritual & Ceremony 24th & 25th October 2026 9.30am – 5.00pm GMT
Hybrid: in person in Battersea, London, or online via Zoom

Across the weekend there will be lecture, discussion, reflection, movement, breathwork and practical ritual work.

We will consider the questions that sit beneath so much of our suffering and longing:

Why am I here?
What do I believe in?
What is my purpose?
What do I serve?
How do I take care of my own mental health?
How do I bring possibility into my family, my home and my future?

We will also look at the rituals of the changing seasons: equinoxes, Christmas, spring, endings, beginnings and thresholds. These moments have always mattered. They give shape to time. They help us to mark change, grief, hope, release and renewal.

We will explore:
Transcendence and immanence
What these two states are, why they matter, and how they relate to the left and right brain.

Presence

The value of presence, what stops us from being able to remain present, and how presence changes our relationship with ourselves, our families and our future.

Religion and spirituality

What it means to be religious, spiritual, neither, or unsure.

Ritualising the home

How to bring meaning into the house through objects, altars, mantras, malas and repeated acts of attention.
Affirmation, gratitude and prayer
How these practices can support the mind, body and spirit.

Altars and sacred space

How to make and tend an altar, what might go on it, and why this practice matters.

Mental health and recovery

How ritual and ceremony can support steadiness, care and a deeper relationship with the self.

The rituals of changing seasons

How to work with equinoxes, Christmas, spring, endings, beginnings and thresholds.

Space clearing

What to do, why to do it, and how to do it.

Life purpose

Why are you here? What do you believe in? What do you serve?

Movement and breathwork

Practices to support presence, embodiment and meaning.

Dates: 24th & 25th October 2026
Time: 9.30am – 5.00pm GMT

One of my most popular and most wonderful workshop One of my most popular and most wonderful workshops: Prosperity and Abundance 

26th & 27th September 2026, 9:30am – 5:30pm Hybrid: in person, in Battersea, London, or online.
Join me for two days exploring and expanding your belief in possibility. 

You may not know this, that that is what prosperity and abundance is about: belief in possibility.

It’s about friendship. It’s about having enough food. It’s about arriving at a point that you recognise that the universe is with you and not against you. It is being open hearted, it’s about gratitude. It is also about presence, the ability to be here.

We only have these magical abilities when we’re present.

Over the two days of this workshop, we will explore the potency of your ability to play and manipulate energy for yourself, within the quantum field of possibility.

We will look at: The ability to achieve your goals, Creativity, Manifestation and much more.

Beautiful person, Addiction isn’t just alcohol a Beautiful person, 

Addiction isn’t just alcohol and drugs.

It can be perfectionism or food. It can be excessive exercise, a shopping habit, the way you are in relationships…

Anxiety. That is a BIG one. Especially right now. 

It is suffering. It is anything that temporarily changes the way we feel but that … becomes its own kind of suffering. 

That’s why this work is relevant to far more people than they imagine.

When I work as a therapist or trainer, my aim isn’t to help you to become someone else.

The aim is to feel safe enough as yourself and, from there, things truly open up.

A Two-Day Pregnancy Yoga Teacher Training with Carolyn Cowan

Pregnancy is one of the most profound thresholds in a human life. It is a time of enormous physical change, emotional intensity, vulnerability, possibility, fear, hope, uncertainty and transformation.
 
It is also a time when many women first turn towards yoga, looking for steadiness, relief, breath, connection, community and a way to feel safer in the body.

Pregnant women deserve to be served well.

They deserve teachers who understand the pregnant body. They deserve classes that are safe, intelligent, inclusive and kind. They deserve to be met in the reality of their experience, rather than in a fantasy of what pregnancy “should” be.

This two-day training is for qualified yoga teachers who want to learn how to adapt yoga safely, creatively and confidently for pregnancy.

It is not limited to Kundalini Global teachers, or to teachers of one particular style of yoga. 

The intention is to give you practical, grounded knowledge that can be applied to the yoga you already teach.

Over two days, I will teach you how to work with the pregnant body, how to adapt posture and sequence, how to think about safety and contraindications, and how to begin to hold pregnancy yoga classes with clarity, confidence and sensitivity.
