Synopsis
Stopping addictive behavior is the only way to start recovery. However, stopping the behavior is not enough to stay in recovery. Recovery Zone, Volume 2 picks up where Recovery Zone, Volume 1 leaves off, guiding readers to begin working additional tasks of Dr. Patrick Carnes's innovative thirty-task model. This book helps readers understand that true recovery is achieved by learning how to achieve life balance.
People in recovery from any addiction can be lulled into accepting that what they are doing is good enough to get by. This can happen especially once the chaos and drama of active addiction stops. However, with advances in neuroscience, addiction experts now know how critical long-term efforts are in achieving sobriety. Researchers have learned that those people who followed a model created by Carnes could enjoy long-term recovery. Readers will discover how to restore financial viability, rediscover meaningful work, build supportive personal relationships, create lifestyle balance, establish healthy exercise and nutrition patterns, and involve family members in therapy.
Patrick Carnes, PhD, is a nationally known speaker on addiction and recovery issues. His thirty-task treatment model is the premier standard for helping people understand how trauma, family genetics, and brain chemistry influence the development of addiction. This volume guides readers to long-term recovery.
