How to Work The Program

You don’t have to sign up for anything. The program is free. You begin on the next page, to start familiarizing yourself with the concepts and principals the Steps are based on. The Steps are designed to be worked autonomously (by yourself, at your own pace). That means you don't have to wait to do anything. You can start working the program right now, on your own. All that's required is a commitment to breaking the addiction and working on yourself.

The Steps outlined on the next page are a guide defining the things that need to be embraced if you want to reduce your vulnerability to toxic relationships. There are podcasts, articles and other materials included here that will help you with understanding what each of these things looks like and suggestions regarding how to implement them in your life. Review these before you begin the exercises.

You start by familiarizing yourself with the Steps. What do they mean? What do they mean in your life? Decide how things would have to change - how you would have to change - in order to achieve these things. Make journal entries about what the Step would look like in practical terms. Ask yourself the tough questions. Create a very clear list of things you need to do in order to achieve it in reality. Break it down as much as you need to. Work on each Step one at a time until you have truly integrated that Step into your life. Then move on to the next. There is no set time for how long this can (or should) take. Some may take longer than others. Don't rush through it. Work on it every day and you will see progress.

Because everyone is different, the Steps are designed to be worked by yourself, at your own pace so you can progress in your own way. If you need support, you can attend one of our weekly meetings. For 1 on 1 coaching or support, you should schedule an appointment with The Little Shaman.
