Art of Addiction is a weekly drop-in class inspired by Nicole Daedone’s transformative book Art of Addiction, which reimagines addiction not as a pathology, but as a profound longing for connection, sensation, and truth. In this class, we explore addiction as a doorway to self-discovery—an invitation to uncover your strengths, your desires, and the intelligence behind your impulses. Through dialogue, reflective practices, and experiential exercises, we shift the addiction paradigm from shame and control to curiosity, compassion, and personal power. All are welcome—whether you're in recovery, exploring your own patterns, or simply drawn to a deeper understanding of the human experience.

About Art of Addiction

The Art of Addiction reframes the journey of addiction as the beautiful, soulful path that it is, distinct from traditional recovery narratives. It embraces the enjoyment and desire inherent in addiction, viewing it as an integral part of life's spiritual journey. Using the wisdom of the Eros Sutras as a guide, this course offers a deep understanding of addiction as a means to connect with self, others, and dignity. Designed for those in any stage of addiction or recovery, it invites participants to explore the depths of their experiences, intimately honoring the full spectrum of their journey with respect.
