Introducing an empowering, whole-self approach to addiction recovery—from a counselor at one of the most renowned drug and alcohol treatment centers.
This “useful and practical perspective on what you can do to recover from [addiction]” can replace or supplement 12-step programs—at any stage in your recovery (Allen Berger, Ph.D., author of 12 Stupid Things That Mess Up Recovery).
Just as addiction affects every part of one’s life, so too must its treatment. By building a healthy space to support our own recovery, we can rewrite the negative behaviors that result in addiction. Usable in conjunction with, or in place of, 12-step programs, Rewired’s whole-self approach to addiction recovery will help you create a personalized treatment plan that is right for you.
Each section in Rewired includes:
• Personal anecdotes from the author’s own struggles with alcoholism and addiction
• Inspiring true success stories of patients overcoming their addictions
• Questions to engage you into finding what is missing from your recovery
• Positive affirmations and intentions to guide and motivate
Centering positivity, patience, compassion, and self-actualization, Rewired offers a humanistic, holistic approach to fighting addiction that will help you acknowledge your power to bring yourself back from the brink. Remember: addicts are not broken people that need to be fixed—they just have a few crossed wires.
