The Biology of Desire
Author: Marc Lewis
Publisher: PublicAffairs
ISBN: 1610394380
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
Through the vivid, true stories of five people who journeyed into and out of addiction, a renowned neuroscientist explains why the "disease model" of addiction is wrong and illuminates the path to recovery. The psychiatric establishment and rehab industry in the Western world have branded addiction a brain disease. But in The Biology of Desire, cognitive neuroscientist and former addict Marc Lewis makes a convincing case that addiction is not a disease, and shows why the disease model has become an obstacle to healing. Lewis reveals addiction as an unintended consequence of the brain doing what it's supposed to do-seek pleasure and relief-in a world that's not cooperating. As a result, most treatment based on the disease model fails. Lewis shows how treatment can be retooled to achieve lasting recovery. This is enlightening and optimistic reading for anyone who has wrestled with addiction either personally or professionally.

Conquering Shame and Codependency
Author: Darlene Lancer
Publisher: Hazelden Publishing
ISBN: 1616495332
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
A nationally recognized author and codependency expert examines the roots of shame and its connection with codependent relationships. Learn how to heal from their destructive hold by implementing eight steps that will empower the real you, and lead to healthier relationships. Shame: the torment you feel when you’re exposed, humiliated, or rejected; the feeling of not being good enough. It’s a deeply painful and universal emotion, yet is not frequently discussed. For some, shame lurks in the unconscious, undermining self-esteem, destroying confidence, and leading to codependency. These codependent relationships—where we overlook our own needs and desires as we try to care for, protect, or please another—often cover up abuse, addiction, or other harmful behaviors. Shame and codependency feed off one another, making us feel stuck, never able to let go, move on, and become the true self we were meant to be. In Conquering Shame and Codependency, Darlene Lancer sheds new light on shame: how codependents’ feelings and beliefs about shame affect their identity, their behavior, and how shame can corrode relationships, destroying trust and love. She then provides eight steps to heal from shame, learn to love yourself, and develop healthy relationships.

Book Description
This book is the ultimate guide to breaking free from the Matrix and living with self-awareness, self-mastery, and freedom. Freedom from addiction is freedom to Be your most authentic self. The true you is capable of epic love, epic health, and epic peace of mind. As author of Gene Keys Richard Rudd states, "this book is not really another book about addiction. It isn't even a book about how to break addiction. It goes much further than this. Ronnie grounds his reader in a simple, controversial but undeniable truth - that we all are addicts in one form or another. To live without addiction presupposes a high level of awareness and even spiritual development. As I read through these pages, I began to realize subtle places in my own life where addictive tendencies still linger, like stubborn lichens clinging to the rocks on mountaintops." Addiction is commonly associated with the abuse of alcohol, drugs, or pornography. However, Ronnie shows us how addiction creeps into our lives with anything from social media to anxiety and overwork, from addiction to codependency or even control. Learn how addiction tethers us to emotional, spiritual, and neurological roller coasters. These highs and lows prevent us from a steady ascension in our spiritual consciousness and overall happiness. Above all, Ronnie provides us with hope that we can alter addictive behaviors that may have plagued us for decades in merely days...Most excitingly, you will learn in this book how to transmute addictive behaviors into pure consciousness. Take a close look at your physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies. Ronnie has been publishing podcasts, books, and courses in the realm of elevating consciousness through health since 2018.Check out more of his books here on Amazon by Following Ronnie Landis the author.
