Produktbeschreibung
This four time award-winning book invites you on a redemptive and uplifting exploration of addiction and recovery. While exploring common themes and challenges in recovery with mindfulness and self-compassion, you'll discover the spiritual and psychological gifts residing in the midst of-and as a result of intimately being with-these challenges. As addiction is everywhere in our modern, globalized world, Dr. Bucklew-who is himself in long term recovery-invites us not to stigmatize or narrowly define it. Whether we turn to alcohol, substances, food, screens, or compulsive thought, at the heart of all addiction lies the same dynamic: an unseen and clenching resistance to the present moment. When we slow down enough to feel into this resistance, we find that it underlies and permeates most aspects of our waking lives. My friend, you are not alone. The Hidden Gifts of Addiction shows that as addiction is a natural, unconscious process of resistance, recovery is a process as well. Recovery is revealed as a loving, moment-by-moment, embrace of resistance. Although we may intuitively feel this to be true, putting it to practice in our daily lives is another matter. This book serves as a companion to you along the way as you do just that. While reading, you'll learn to develop self-compassion, and see how meditative inquiry can shine light on trauma, and other challenging core emotions that can feed more overt addictive patterns. You'll explore the role of the body in recovery, and see how to relax your identification with addictive thinking patterns. You'll also find that it's safe to really listen to and trust yourself on your absolutely unique journey of recovery. Most importantly, The Hidden Gifts of Addiction invites you to see that you do not need to wait years to feel better. Health, happiness, and the peace you yearn for are in large part the life-blood of this moment. 2021 Living Now Book Awards Winner: As 2021 "Books for Better Living" gold medal winner in the category of Self-Help, the work is recognized, amongst international titles, to be 'life-changing and exceptional'.
