The movie The Secret is about transformation. Transformation is about changing your life and experiences through changing your thoughts and beliefs. I use the movie The Secret to bring together the work of transformation and recovery. Approximately twice a month I show the movie to those in recovery, to introduce them to the concept of transformation and the power of their thinking. The awakening is getting that thought created their situation and circumstance and that thought will be their salvation, the key to their true liberation. For some the movie is very confronting, confronting in the sense that their sense of responsibility becomes fully present to them. Much of those in recovery do not want to assume responsibility for their life and the consequences that have been created. The movie The Secret is a tool that can be used to assist others in learning about and eventually assuming their responsibility and with it their true power to change or transform their lives.
