Refuge Recovery
Author: Noah LevinePublisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062123092
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
Bestselling author and renowned Buddhist teacher Noah Levine adapts the Buddha's Four Noble Truths and Eight Fold Path into a proven and systematic approach to recovery from alcohol and drug addiction—an indispensable alternative to the 12-step program. While many desperately need the help of the 12-step recovery program, the traditional AA model's focus on an external higher power can alienate people who don't connect with its religious tenets. Refuge Recovery is a systematic method based on Buddhist principles, which integrates scientific, non-theistic, and psychological insight. Viewing addiction as cravings in the mind and body, Levine shows how a path of meditative awareness can alleviate those desires and ease suffering. Refuge Recovery includes daily meditation practices, written investigations that explore the causes and conditions of our addictions, and advice and inspiration for finding or creating a community to help you heal and awaken. Practical yet compassionate, Levine's successful Refuge Recovery system is designed for anyone interested in a non-theistic approach to recovery and requires no previous experience or knowledge of Buddhism or meditation.
Rational Recovery from Alcoholism

Category : Alcoholics
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
THE SMALL BOOK is a no-nonsense, get-better-now directive to addicts who want a better life. No "higher power" is necessary to recover from alcoholism or other drug dependence, using this bold, new approach to addiction. THE SMALL BOOK, taking issue with 'The Big Book' of AA, is the core volume for members of the international network of Rational Recovery (RR) groups, founded by author Jack Trimpey, LCSW. It is a comprehensive guide to rational sobriety that directs addicts toward complete recovery through abstinence & the rational-emotive therapy (RET) of Albert Ellis. In his Introduction , Dr. Ellis says, "One of the very best. Therapeutically, it is unusually sound." Self-inspired recovery is made possible through "voice recognition," whereby the addict becomes vigilant for thoughts supporting further use of alcohol or drugs. These ideas are disputed by the addict, & the locus of control is found within. Trimpey discourages the self-label "codependent" but many people are so dependent on addicts (for love or approval) that self-interset is overshadowed. The chapter, "To the Professionals," is a signal for change in AA-dominated addiction care system.

Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy of Stuttering (REBTS) delivers permanent recovery from stuttering by addressing stuttering from a wholistic point of view. Not only does it target the mechanical speech aspects of stuttering by constantly reducing the severity and frequency of speech disfluencies, but it also works on the conscious and subconscious cognitions about self and stuttering that propagate struggled, forced speech, concomitant extraneous motions called secondary stuttering, and the negative emotions associated with stuttering. The REBTS process results in thinking clearly, speaking freely, and living fully.By following the suggestions in this book, we can practically guarantee operational fluency because REBTS:Enhances motivation by encouraging the use of a written journal and weekly smart phone generated video clips to show progress. Can eliminate or at least greatly reduce anxiety and other negative emotions that exacerbate stuttering. Teaches you how to unconditionally accept yourself and your stuttering as you begin to stutter less and less frequently and severely.This book teaches you to substitute easy bounces for forced, struggled stutters.

The Pagan In Recovery: The Twelve Steps From A Pagan Perspective
Author: Deirdre A. HebertPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0982579861
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
The Twelve Steps developed by Alcoholics Anonymous are powerful tools to transform the lives of people who struggle with addiction, co-dependency, and compulsive behaviors. Unfortunately, Pagans in recovery are likely to struggle with the Christian assumptions and language found in many of these programs. This book is intended to support a Pagan's participation in any Twelve Step program, by showing that the effectiveness and relevance of these tools does not depend on a specific religious or spiritual tradition. This book attempts to bridge the gap between the Christian and Pagan understanding of the Twelve Steps, while remaining faithful to the original Twelve Step process. The Pagan in Recovery is the result of Deirdre Hebert's ability to live her Pagan faith in the midst of a program with a deeply Christian heritage, and demonstrates that anyone, of any faith, can experience freedom from addictions, compulsive or co-dependent behaviors through this process.
