Book Description

When addiction feels like an overwhelming force controlling your life, finding a path forward requires more than willpower alone. Addiction expert Suzette Glasner-Edwards presents a comprehensive seven-step program that addresses both the behaviors and underlying causes that fuel addictive patterns.

This integrative workbook combines three powerful, research-backed approaches: cognitive behavioral therapy techniques that help reshape destructive thought patterns, motivational interviewing strategies that strengthen your commitment to change, and mindfulness-based relapse prevention practices that cultivate present-moment awareness and emotional regulation.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, this resource empowers you to develop your own personalized recovery plan. The program recognizes that addiction often stems from deeper issues like feelings of powerlessness or lack of control, providing tools to address these root causes alongside the addictive behaviors themselves.

Whether you're beginning your recovery journey, supplementing professional treatment, or supporting someone you care about, this workbook serves as both a standalone guide and a valuable complement to therapy or rehabilitation programs. The evidence-based strategies within these pages offer practical skills for maintaining sobriety while rebuilding a sense of purpose and fulfillment.

For those ready to reclaim agency over their lives, this workbook provides the comprehensive toolkit needed to move beyond addiction toward lasting recovery and renewed meaning.
