Publisher's Synopsis

Addicts and alcoholics are often highly spiritualised individuals who lack the faith apparatus to make a healthy connection with their spiritual drive. As such, they turn to negative behaviour patterns to fulfil that hunger: alcohol, drugs, food, sex, gambling, pornography, social media and dysfunctional relationships. This book offers a series of insights and methods whereby faith may be restored and positively channelled into life-sustaining behaviour. It is addressed to addicts, their families and friends, as well as interested laypeople, government policymakers and treatment professionals. The authors include instruction in yoga and breathing exercises, meditation and mindfulness, as well as case studies and medical guidance for detoxification.
