Synopsis

Recovery from addiction to alcohol or drugs is about much more than just getting sober. 

For many people, recovery means learning how to stay sober, while also repairing relationships, restoring physical and mental health, and picking up the pieces of a career. It can all be quite overwhelming when you’re newly sober and just trying to get through one day at a time.

My Life in Recovery, a 12-session workbook, gently guides you through these issues and shows you how to develop a personalized recovery plan—one that will help you avoid relapse, slowly and carefully rebuild your life, and enjoy a rich and rewarding life in sobriety for years to come.

A companion to The Recovery Book: Answers to All Your Questions About Addiction and Alcoholism and Finding Health and Happiness in Sobriety, the award-winning book by addiction expert Al J. Mooney, M.D., each session in My Life in Recovery includes reading assignments, homework questions, discussion topics, and personal exercises that will help you (and your recovery community) explore these topics.

My Life in Recovery can be used as a 12-week meeting plan or self-paced program. Recovery professionals, peer counselors, sponsors, and individuals new to recovery will all find it to be an immensely useful and practical tool for building a strong and solid recovery.

In My Life in Recovery, you will:
- Learn about addiction and what it means to “live in recovery”
- Develop practical skills for avoiding relapse
- Explore Dr. Mooney’s Recovery Zone System and learn how it can help you rebuild your life and heal your brain (and how it works hand-in-hand with Twelve Step programs)
- Develop your personalized My Life in Recovery Plan, outlining the steps you’ll take to secure your recovery

When you have a plan, you can thrive in recovery—for a lifetime.
