Recovery - Twelve Simple Steps to a Life Beyond Addiction Zusammenfassung

Recovery - Twelve Simple Steps to a Life Beyond Addiction: A contemporary recovery handbook for users and practitioners Lynden Finlay

Are you sick and tired of being addicted? Do you want to recover but think the 12-Step programme is not for you because you don't believe in God? This book presents a new version of the Steps which is simple and do-able by everyone, whether they have a particular faith or not. Research now proves beyond doubt that the 12-Step programme is a way to long-term recovery, so if you are suffering from addiction, or are a GP who knows your addicted patient needs more support than you can provide, this book is for you.

Lynden Finlay has over twenty years' experience both in addictions counselling and personally recovering from addictions herself, working closely with the Twelve Steps programme during that time. Over the years she has seen many residents benefit from this version which has at its heart not a focus on God, but on the healing power of one addict helping another.

Recovery - Twelve Simple Steps to a Life Beyond Addiction Bewertungen

I welcome Lynden's book and thoroughly applaud her efforts to construct a meaningful language of experience and overcoming. It is high time for a re-wording of the 12 Steps of AA- for those that want it- as a creative way of reaching out to those who are hard-to-reach. Words are openings to worlds and her book provides an accessible entree to that all-important world: `life beyond addiction'. Consultant Clinical Psychologist/Psychotherapist, Author and `Non-Alcoholic Trustee' with General Service Board of AA (GB). -- Martin Weegmann
At last, a book that provides stepping stones both ways, for the atheist addict and the scientifically trained practitioner. This book lays open the underlying mechanisms of recovery in a clear and simple way. A welcome harnessing of the power of 12 Step without the religious jargon. I am sure that many people will be able to access AA and other 12 step programmes as a result of this myth busting book. Well done! Trustee and Board Member of AA -- Paul Myles * www.paulmyles.co.uk *
Readers will find in its pages lucid, moving and inspiring real-life accounts of the transformative effects of adopting, interpreting and using the Twelve Steps as a framework for recovery. This is at once a text book for professionals and people seeking recovery, and an important intervention into an ongoing debate about the role and place of the Twelve Steps within the burgeoning Recovery Movement. Dr Wendy Dossett Director (Research) of the Higher Power Project, Department of Theology and Religious Studies, University of Chester * Dr Wendy Dossett *
