A Woman's Addiction Workbook: Your Guide to In-Depth Healing (Paperback)
by Lisa M. Najavits
"You may be wondering why there is a need for a woman's addiction book..."
Book Description
Women and girls are now becoming addicted at greater rates than ever before-and until very recently women in recovery relied on treatment models based solely on work with men. Harvard addiction and trauma expert Lisa M. Najavits, PhD offers a program to help women explore the often-overlooked problems associated with their alcohol and drug addictions-- such as body image, trauma and violence, relationships, stress, and thrill-seeking. She explores how women differ from men in their addiction and recovery, and conveys a supportive tone to help them embark on the journey to healing.
From the Publisher
Women in recovery are often dependent on treatment models designed by and for men. In this vital, strengths-building workbook, the chair of Harvard Medical School's Division on Addictions Womens Initiative offers a new step-by-step program that teaches women how to best address their addictions, and introduces pivotal techniques for exploring underlying factors that drive them. Women learn how their addiction differs from that of men and how to identify addictive life patterns and understand co-occurring disorders.
Just a note: Rather your addiction is shopping, drinking, eating or whatever, A Woman's Addiction Workbook: Your Guide to In-Depth Healing, will help you to get to the root cause of it all. Highly recommend this one for Women. |

Approval Addiction
Another great book for those who are Codependent
Most of us have a healthy need for appreciation from time to time. However, bestselling author Joyce Meyer points out that some of us require constant approval from peers, parents, children, friends, superiors, and co-workers, a state of affairs that results in never-ending disappointment in our lives. Using biblical teachings, Pat Lentz imparts the author's insightful self-help counsel to provide self-esteem-adjustment solutions for the approval-addicted psyche. Her comforting and reassuring presentation sets the tone for introspection, learning to limit apprehension, and creating a stress-free environment for personal reassessment. |
