Natural Remedies For Alcoholism

Question about sensation seeking and Alcoholism.?
Im an alcoholic has been sober for 1 year and 3 months almost now. I have not had a single drink since November 11 last year. However, I am noticing an almost sub-Conscious desire to alter my mood. I drink too much caffeine, and took a painkiller a time without need. Ive since I flushed the pills down the toilet after realizing what he was doing (I basically had a bad case of sciatica and needed something to make it better a couple of weeks ago, so there is no more reason to keep anyway). I did not go the route of AA, but I went to the inpatient and outpatient treatment. I did not step in AA, since I'm not religious, although AA claims to be non-denominational, which pretty much forces the concept of God on you in the 12 steps. I wonder, is there any natural remedies or recipes that can help me, do not seek sensations all the time? It is a horrible way to feel all the time, because you feel like you do not feel good at all time.
Google different types of meditation. It alters the mind, but is the big version with the only side effects that good.
