Synopsis

Brings Integral Theory to addiction treatment, offering a more holistic vision of recovery and powerful practices for achieving it.

This book is for everyone who is suffering from the disease of addiction or who cares about someone who is: for addicts, their families and friends, and their health care providers. It is for those who are currently in recovery and looking for a way to shift their recovery into a higher gear—from just surviving and muddling through to becoming the absolute best version of themselves, from mere recovery to Integral Recovery.

Integral Recovery is the groundbreaking application of Integral Theory to addiction. It brings alcohol and drug treatment into the twenty-first century by combining the best of the treatment modalities of the past with the latest knowledge, techniques, and neurotechnologies in order to ensure a more holistic and lasting recovery. In addition to providing an illuminating and inspiring map to the path of recovery, Integral Recovery teaches life-changing practices that initiate the addict on a journey of healing, transformation, and awakening, offering the possibility of a lifetime of health, joy, and sobriety.

Goodreads review by MJ on January 04, 2022

This book would have had 5 stars if it had ended at chapter 7. The AQAL approach to recovery is invaluable and I've used it quite a bit myself. But chapter 8 begins a series of ableist pseudoscientific rants with cherry-picked "support" from studies. The first seven chapters outline a wholistic appr......more

Goodreads review by John on February 08, 2021

It's an advertisement for Integral Recovery. The book doesn't teach you how to do anything, it just keeps emphasizing that when you finally hire one of their therapists or whatever they call their practitioners, THIS is what they'll do. I'm disappointed that I actually paid for this book.......more
