DESCRIPTION:
We need not change any steps. Our problems may be caused by factors of which we are totally unaware. Our brains and the quality of our infancies have a profound influence on working the 12 steps, which are so basic to any recovery program such as Alcoholics Anonymous. This book spells out what may be causing these problems and what can be done about them through using the 12 steps and sponsorship. We don't have to be brain scientists.. Working the 12 steps changes our brains. It is a question of where our attention is focused and the depth of our awareness. Therefore, the more we know about how the brain works, as described in this book, the more likely we will be to know what we're actually dealing with as we develop our own concept of a power greater than ourselves, work with a sponsor, take inventory, practice meditation and work with others
Excellent! Anyone who has been in the grip of alcoholism can appreciate the insight into the human brain in this book!. I benefitted from this book The book game me insight on my behaviors and explanations/reasons for them. It wasn't too technical. I finished the book! Any book that even begins to bore me gets closed and forgotten. I simply like the book.
