Overview

 

What if you’re not an addict, but simply spiritually starving? Jason Rigby and guest Hamza Najam dive deep into the misunderstood nature of addiction—not as a moral failing, but a misalignment of energy and consciousness. Drawing from both science and spirituality, Hamza explains how trauma becomes trapped in our lower chakras and keeps us tethered to past pain, perpetuating cycles of numbing and escapism.

 

This episode unpacks the neuroscience behind addiction, the role of the heart-brain connection, and the transformative power of breathwork. Listeners will hear how breath becomes the bridge to the higher self, dissolving stored trauma and reconnecting the body to divine frequency. Through gratitude, visualization, and spiritual discipline, Hamza reveals how every soul can reclaim worth and rise above patterns of unworthiness and fear. This is a call to wake up, turn inward, and remember who you really are.
