Essentially that those that used mindfulness had more empathy, or could understand and relate to their SO feelings, more effectively which decreased their resistance to attachment.

I have tried Suboxone, rehabs, mental institutions, all of it. All failed. I read a few articles about mindfulness and took a good look at what I was doing. It was unacceptable and I had to change. Addiction is a disease, feeding that addiction is a choice. I choose not to. It was humbling to see myself for what I was. It was mindfulness that showed me.

Mindfulness is actually what started my abandonment of opioids. I had been addicted to oxy, heroin and fentanyl for 15 years. I read an article about it, used the techniques and decided I was not doing the right thing. It changed me in a very good way.
